CHILI LIME MARINADE

CHILI LIME AND TOMATO MARINADE

Steps:

• Combine all of the ingredients except the chili powder in a bowl and mix well. Taste to see if marinade has an acceptable level of spice. If not, add more hot sauce (not buffalo sauce!) to taste. Place fish in a plastic zipper bag or make a bag out of tin foil. Add marinade and make sure fish is coated. Place in fridge for desired amount of time, but at least 45 minutes, turning at least once before cooking.
• When ready to cook, make a bag out of tin foil and place fish and marinade in it, if not already. Sprinkle the chili powder over the fish and make sure the top of the "bag" remains open, high enough so the marinade does not escape. Cook at 400 degrees until done. (Cooked) Marinade also doubles as a sauce for the fish if desired.

Steps:

• Whisk together the hot sauce, olive oil, agave nectar, chili powder, salt, lime zest and juice. Season with freshly ground pepper. Serve with Black Bean Salad with Spicy Crispix (TM) Croutons.

• In a large bowl combine beans, corn, tomatoes, chiles, onion, and half the cilantro. Toss with 1/3 cup vinaigrette; cover and chill 30 minutes or up to 8 hours. Place greens on platter. Arrange bean salad over greens. Top with remaining cilantro and cereal croutons.

Reduce heat to low, and simmer 3 to 5 hours until liquid reduces and thickens. Adjust seasonings to taste.

CHILE-LIME CLAMS WITH TOMATOES AND GRILLED BREAD

Steps:

• Prepare a grill for medium, indirect heat (for a gas grill, leave one or two burners off; for a charcoal grill, bank coals on one side of grill). Place a large cast-iron skillet on grill over direct heat (move it around to cooler part of grill as you cook if needed) and melt 4 Tbsp. butter in skillet. Add shallots and garlic and cook, stirring often, until soft, about 4 minutes. Add tomato paste and cook, stirring often, until paste darkens to a rich brick-red color, about 1 minute. Add beer and tomatoes. Bring to a boil and cook until beer is reduced nearly by half and no longer smells boozy, about 4 minutes. Stir in chickpeas and sambal oelek, then add clams. Cover (if you don't have a lid that fits, use a sheet of foil) and cook, stirring occasionally, until clams have opened; this could take from 5-10 minutes depending on size of clams and the heat level. Remove from heat; discard any clams that don't open. Stir in lime juice and remaining 2 Tbsp. butter.
• While the clams are cooking on the grill, drizzle bread with oil and season lightly with salt. Grill until golden brown and crisp, about 2 minutes per side.
• Transfer toast to plates and spoon clam mixture over; top with cilantro. Serve with lime wedges for squeezing over.

• Stir the chili beans, diced tomatoes, tomato sauce, water, chili powder, cumin, nutmeg, salt, black pepper, lime juice, and Worcestershire sauce into the pot; reduce heat to medium-low and cook 3 to 5 hours. Remove from heat and allow to cool slightly before chilling in refrigerator overnight.

• Cool to room temperature, about 30 minutes.
• Transfer tomatoes, onion, and any juices in pan to a food processor and add chipotles with sauce, jalapeño, lime juice, salt, and pepper. Pulse until vegetables are finely chopped.
