Changas in the Weber !



So ... our oven broke the other night.
We discovered it when we went to put these in it !

We needed a plan B.
We decided to try them in the Weber BBQ!

We are so glad we did !
They were amazing. It added a smokiness to them.

We will do them this way from now on !


What you need:
1 and 1/2 cups cooked and thinly diced chicken ( about 2 breasts )
1 jar salsa, I use a medium
1 tsp ground cumin
1/2 tsp oregano
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
2 chopped green onions (spring onions)
I also mix in leftover cilantro (coriander) from making guacamole !
12 eight inch flour tortillas
2 TBLS melted butter, or olive oil
--
Mix salsa, cumin, oregano, chicken, cheese and onions. Place about 1/4 cup chicken mixture in centre of each tortilla. Roll. Brush very liberally with melted butter, or olive oil. Bake at 400F degrees for 25 minutes or until golden brown. (watch them the first time you make them ... mine don't ever take that long to cook) OR cook in a hooded BBQ ... about 25 minutes. Sprinkle with additional cheese. Serve with salsa (I don't add more salsa to mine but my husband likes hot salsa so he puts that on here ...), sour cream and guacamole.


Salmon with An Amazing Salsa

Tonight for dinner we did Salmon Steaks on the BBQ with Grilled Pineapple Salsa, corn on the cob and Pumpkin Lentil Salad. Every single bit of it was DELICIOUS !!!

For the salmon ... usually we buy it with the skin on but it wasn't available this time so we went with no skin. Rory rubbed it with butter and BBQ'd it on the Weber ~ 6 minutes each side. It was beautiful !!


The Pineapple Salsa was so easy ... I did it just the way she said ... except, I didn't add the salt and I chopped the jalapeno and served it on the side for those who wanted it.

1 large pineapple
1/3 of a large red onion, finely diced
juice of 2 small limes
1/2 cup chopped fresh coriander leaves

Take the skin off your pineapple, slice into 4 or five big slices. Grill pineapple on a medium hot grill ... about five minutes each side. Be careful not to cook it too long ... You're aiming for caramelized ... not burned.

When your pineapple is done, remove from heat and let cool completely. Dice the pineapple into small pieces, then toss with the remaining ingredients. DONE. So easy. So yummy !
