Terlingua Chicken Recipes

TERLINGUA RED CHILI

Steps:

• Dried Chili Salsa is Recipe #408273.
• In a dutch oven over medium high heat melt bacon fat.
• Brown beef with black pepper. We like to chop the beef so it is a fine mince, not chunky-that part is up to you.
• Drain off most of the fat, leaving about 1/4 cup.
• Add chicken broth.
• Bring to a boil.
• Reduce heat to medium low and cook until liquid has reduced to 1 inch.
• Add beef broth, salsa and remaining spices.
• Cook to desired thickness.
• Serve with warm corn tortillas and shredded sharp cheddar cheese.

TERLINGUA CHICKEN

Steps:

• Combine all of the ingredients in a saucepan. Bring the mixture to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer for 10 minutes.
• Remove jalapenos with a slotted spoon. Refrigerate the jalapenos. Let syrup mixture cool and place in the refrigerator.
• When the syrup mixture is totally cooled, pout 1 1/2 cups of the syrup over the chicken breasts. Marinate the chicken for 1 hour. The remaining syrup will be used for basting. Remove the chicken from the marinade and discard the liquid. Grill the chicken 3-5 minutes on each side, basting with reserved syrup mixture during cooking. Transfer to the serving platter and garnish with the candied jalapenos.
