Lunch from Los Machados

Hello Friends, I hope you are having a good Sunday

Yesterday after car shopping we stopped at Dutch Country Farmers Market to drop off the vacuum cleaner hose for repair.  After checking in on Foursquare, I unlocked a Loyalty Badge and was awarded 1 lb of FREE Chicken Tenders from Stoltzfus BBQ.  It was definitely a pleasant surprise and was going to be a perfect match for The Ghost Hot Sauce that I had just purchased.

Tired and hungry we drove over to Los Machados Mexican Restaurant  for a take out lunch.  This was my second time ordering the Texana Salad and it’s delicious; lettuce, tomatoes, cucumbers and red onions are topped with large succulent shrimp, tender and perfectly seasoned slices of beef and chicken.  I added a few drops of The Ghost Hot Sauce to the salsa dressing and BOOM it was on like popcorn!

Hubby ordered the Vegetarian Delight #10; veggies cooked on the grill, served over a bed of rice and topped with cheese.  Tayair had the Enchiladas Supreme; 1 chicken, 1 bean and 1 cheese and beef enchilada topped with lettuce, tomato, guacamole and sour cream.  This family style, authentic Mexican restaurant is colorful with a fun atmosphere and the next time we’ll dine in so that I can order from it’s impressive bar.

Blah Blah Boring Chicken to Oooh La La Coconut Chicken

I cook chicken so often that I’m afraid one day we’ll sprout feathers!  We like chicken, it’s quick, easy to prepare, and cheap but sometimes it can be BORING.  Yesterday I came across a recipe by Caramelpotatoes.com and since I had all the ingredients I decided to give it a try.

Ingredients:

1.5 lbs chicken tenders ( I cut up chicken breasts into chunks)

1 egg

1/2 can sweetened condensed milk (I used unsweetened coconut milk)

1 1/4 cups coconut

1 cup bread crumbs or Panko (I used both)

1/2 cup melted butter

Preheated the oven to 400~
Used parchment paper to line baking sheet

Cut up chicken breasts into chunks

Egg and coconut milk on one side
Coconut and Panko on the other side

Dipped chicken into egg/milk mixture

Coat both sides of chicken in crumbs and coconut

Placed chicken on baking sheet covered with parchment paper

Poured melted butter over the top – the next time I will use PAM to save the calories

Baked 15 minutes on each side and then an additional 20 minutes. I could have turned on the broiler to darken but wanted to keep them moist.

Dinner is served!
Tayair was the only one who didn’t like it because he doesn’t like coconut.
