GRILLED CHICKEN WITH TOMATO-AVOCADO SALSA

Steps:

• The first 6 ingredients are for the salsa. The next four ingredients are for the marinade.
• For the salsa:
• In a small bowl, combine the tomatoes, red onion, pepper and cilantro.
• Chop the avocado and sprinkle it with 2 tablespoons of lime juice to keep it from browning.
• Add the avocado and remaining lime juice to the bowl and toss to combine.
• (This can be made in advance and stored in the refrigerator for up to 1 day.)
• For the chicken:.
• In a small food processor, puree the yogurt, red onion, lime juice and cilantro to make a yogurt marinade.
• Transfer the marinade to a shallow bowl or a plastic bag.
• Add the chicken and coat well with the marinade.
• Refrigerate for 1 hour or up to 8 hours.
• Preheat the grill to medium-high.
• Remove the chicken from the marinade, discard the remaining marinade and season the chicken with salt and pepper.
• Grill the chicken on both sides until it is cooked through, about 6 minutes per side.
• Serve the chicken with tomato-avocado salsa.

BAKED CHICKEN SPAGHETTI

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Prepare a 13x9-inch baking dish with cooking spray.
• Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Cook spaghetti in the boiling water, stirring occasionally until cooked through but firm to the bite, about 12 minutes. Drain.
• Melt 6 tablespoons butter in a skillet over medium-high heat. Cook and stir mushrooms, onion, and celery in melted butter until just tender, 5 to 6 minutes; transfer to a large bowl.
• Stir diced tomatoes, cream of mushroom soup, chicken broth, chopped green chiles, sour cream, seasoned salt, cayenne pepper, salt, and black pepper into the mushroom mixture. Add chicken and Cheddar cheese; stir. Gently toss the pasta with the mixture to coat the pasta completely; transfer to the prepared baking dish.
• Mix bread crumbs and melted butter in a small bowl; sprinkle evenly over the pasta mixture.
• Bake in preheated oven until hot and bubbly, 30 to 40 minutes.

SIMPLE SPICY CHICKEN PASTA

Steps:

• Heat a few lugs of the olive oil in a large pan on a med-high heat then add the onions, garlic, peppers and chilli powder. Fry for about 5 minutes, or until onions are softened and pale (not golden).
• Add the chicken, with a pinch of salt and pepper, to the pan and cook until all the chicken is sealed, but not browning.
• Keep on the heat and add the tomatoes, worcestershire sauce, juice of 1/2 a lemon, the chilli flakes and a good pinch of salt and pepper. Give a good stir and turn the heat up high. Let the sauce reach a boil and then reduce the heat to a med-low setting. Cover the pot and allow to simmer for 45 minutes, stirring occasionally.
• With about 15 minutes left to cook, put on some pasta . I recommend a tagliatelle, fusilli, conchiglie or penne.
• Once the sauce has been on for a good 45 minutes and has reduced slightly, remove from the heat and add the cheese. Stir to make sure it has melted through the sauce. Then drain off the pasta and add the the pot with the sauce, give a good stir to mix the pasta. Serve in a bowl, or high-edged plate, with some garlic bread on the side.
