CHA CHA CHICKEN
I don't know where I got this recipe from, but recipes are only guidelines for me, so I am not sure if this is the real recipe or my variation of the original. I didn't even know what to call it! I love this dish, and so does my entire family. I serve with Spanish rice or ranch beans and a salad.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
- Arrange chicken in the bottom of a 2-quart casserole dish. Squeeze lime juice over the chicken and season with salt and pepper.
- Mix salsa and garlic together in a bowl. Spoon 1/4 cup of the salsa mixture over each chicken breast; top with more lime juice.
- Cook chicken breasts in the preheated oven until no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, 50 to 60 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).

Steps:
- In a large bowl, mix together the coconut milk, lime juice, onion and chile. Add the chicken and stir to coat. Cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours but ideally overnight to let the coconut milk mixture tenderize the chicken.
- About an hour before frying, remove the chicken from the refrigerator and let it sit out at room temperature to take the chill off.
- In a large, heavy-bottomed pot, add enough oil to come about halfway up the sides and heat to 365 degrees F.
- In large bowl, combine the flour, coconut, salt, garlic powder, thyme, five-spice powder, cayenne, allspice and nutmeg and stir until well combined.
- Remove the chicken from the marinade and lightly shake off the excess. Coat the chicken with the seasoned flour, shake off the excess, then set it on a baking sheet.
- Add a few pieces of chicken to the pot, being careful not to overcrowd. Fry, in batches if necessary, until golden brown and cooked through, about 20 minutes. Set aside on a wire-racked lined baking sheet.
- Arrange the chicken pieces on a platter with the cilantro and lime wedges.
CHA CHA'S WHITE CHICKEN CHILI
Delicious white bean chili. Cha Cha says: 'It's kinda spicy, so watch out!' Substitute mild green chiles for the jalapenos if you're scared! Use more chicken and cheese as desired.

- Preheat oven to 350 F (180 C ) (gas mark 4) (moderate oven). Remove chicken legs from package and pat dry with paper towel. Set aside. Place a rack inside a half sheet sized rimmed baking sheet and set aside.
- Using a brush, paint a thick coat of melted butter over each of the chicken legs. Use your hands to pat the flour mixture onto each of the chicken legs, pressing the coating into the skin slightly as you go. When the coating is applied all over, place each leg on the rack that is in the rimmed baking sheet. Make sure to allow some space between each leg so that the heat can circulate well while baking - this will help crisp the skin.
