Sure.


Chicken Tequila Fettuccine:

1 pound dry spinach fettuccine
1/2 C. chopped fresh cilantro
2 Tbsp. minced fresh garlic
2 Tbsp. minced jalapeno pepper
3 Tbsp. unsalted butter
1/2 C. chicken stock
2 Tbsp. gold tequila
2 Tbsp. freshly squeezed lime juice
3 Tbsp. soy sauce
1 1/4 pounds chicken breast, diced 3/4 inch
1/4 medium red onion, thinly sliced
1/2 medium red bell pepper, thinly sliced
1/2 medium yellow bell pepper, thinly sliced
1/2 medium green bell pepper, thinly sliced
1 1/2 cups heavy cream

1. Prepare rapidly boiling, salted water to cook pasta. Cook pasta according to package.

2. Cook 1/3 cup cilantro, garlic and jalapeno in 2 tablespoons butter over medium heat for 4 to 5 minutes. Add stock, tequila and lime juice. Bring the mixture to a boil and cook until reduced to a paste like consistency; set aside.

3. Pour soy sauce over diced chicken; set aside for 5 minutes. Meanwhile cook onion and peppers, stirring occasionally, with remaining butter over medium heat. When the vegetables have wilted (become limp), add chicken and soy sauce; toss and add reserved tequila/lime paste and cream.

4. Bring the sauce to a boil; boil gently until chicken is cooked through and sauce is thick (about 3 minutes).
When sauce is done, toss with well-drained spinach fettuccine and reserved cilantro.


Chicken in Peanut Sauce:
(Here's the thing about the sauce. I don't have exact measurements. I just mix the ingredients and go based on taste, adding things here and there until I get it right)

1-1.5 pounds of chicken tenderloins
Garlic Powder, Soy Sauce
about 1/2 cup Peanut Butter, Chunky Style
about 1/4th cup Soy Sauce
1 Tablespoon Honey
2 Tablespoons Lime Juice
3 minced garlic cloves
a few dashes of Red Hot/Hot Sauce
one small dash of white vinegar

Marinate the chicken in some soy sauce and garlic powder. Then grill.
Mix all of the ingredients (peanut butter to white vinegar) in a large bowl. Add more ingredients if necessary. if it needs more peanut butter add more. if it needs more heat add more red hot, if it needs to be tamed, add some more lime. Then toss the grilled chicken in the bowl with the peanut sauce and get them all covered in it. Serve. DH loves this recipe.
