Red River Green Chili Chicken


While we were on vacation in the mountains, we made a new concoction and we thought it was delicious!

The night we had it, we sat outside, in our sweatshirts, and came up with a name to call it.

"Red River Green Chili Chicken" won!

If you make it, you can call it whatever you want!

The top picture, it's served on top of a deli thin that's been toasted on the grill.




This is on a toasted deli thin with green salsa on top of it!


This is my favorite way to consume this dish:  Red River Chili Chicken

Red River Green Chili Chicken

1/2 onion, chopped
2 cooked chicken breasts, chopped
1-2 cans chopped green chili, drained
3-4 pieces of bacon, cooked and chopped
cheese
bread

Taking your onion in a large pan with butter or olive oil, saute until tender.
Throw in the chopped chicken, green chili's, and cooked bacon.  Stir until thoroughly heated.
Top the mixture with a small amount of cheese (sliced or grated).  We used pepper-jack cheese and colby jack.  Allow to melt.

Remove from heat and serve.

**Because I usually cook extra grilled chicken, that's what I used in this mixture.  Also, when I cook bacon, I cook at least two packages at a time and keep it in the freezer.  So for me, this dinner throws together in a minute because everything has been pre-cooked and I'm simply "warming things up!"

Charleston's Style Potato Soup

Love Charleston's! Love everything I ever eat at Charleston's. Love the blackened fish sandwich, which isn't listed on the menu but you can still order it, with glazed carrots. Love the carrots! Love the chicken fingers;  the best there are!  I rarely order them -- because it's not a healthy choice, but oh boy!  They're delish! Love the honey glazed croissant. L.O.V.E! Love the pork chops with smashed potatoes and glazed carrots. Love the potato soup! Seriously adore it! It's thick. It's simple. It's delicious! We don't have a Charleston's where we live. Boo hoo! Here's a close replica of Charleston's baked potato soup.  I found it at www.tastebook.com   I made some adjustments to the recipe.  Not because I think I "know," but because I didn't have everything on hand nor can my sweet girl cherub have some of the ingredients.  I made it and didn't tell my family what it was su

Neiman Marcus' Chicken Tortilla Soup

 I've been to eat at Neiman Marcus one time. It was really good! "Everyone" talks about the Neiman Marcus cafe and the things they love from there. Because I've only been once, my variety of selection is limited! However, I have had lunch with friends that serve this Neiman Marcus soup recipe. It is so delicious that I wanted to pass it along to you! If your weather is like our weather, one day you're making soup and the next your grilling out! But because these are simple ingredients, you'll be able to throw it together in a moments notice! Neiman Marcus' Chicken Tortilla Soup 3-4 chicken breasts; cooked and shredded (or whole chicken;  cooked & shredded) olive oil 1 c onion, chopped 1 c bell pepper, chopped 1 c celery, chopped 1 c carrots, chopped 1/2 T minced garlic 2 t cumin 2 t coriander 1 t paprika 1 t red chili powder 1 T oregano 1/2 t cayenne (adjust to your taste) 1 28-oz can diced to

Creamy Poblano Chicken Dinner

Picture used from "My Recipes.com" My picture didn't look nearly as appetizing! We've been eating this since the late 90's. Oh man!  That sounds like we're really old! This is one of those fantastic Southern Living Recipes that looks really hard, sounds really gourmet-ish, and is so easy! Whenever the Mr. requests his birthday dinner, it's always this meal! He had his 43rd birthday yesterday! To go along with his new "older" age, we recently counted the number of doctors he has. Yes, doctors! Right now in life, it's not his social outlet to visit these physicians on a regular basis . .  .but none-the-less, he has a well-rounded network of doctors that can take care of any need of his, ranging from his head to his toes. What a treat it is to get older. But with getting older comes this meal! Serve this with a green salad and dessert and you'll be the hit of the party! Creamy Poblano Chi
