Saucy Fajitas
2 cups tomato Sauce
2 Jalapeno peppers or 1/8 tsp red pepper flakes
4 tbsp fresh coriander, minced
2 limes
Salt & Pepper
Chicken thighs (I used chicken breasts instead)
4 Tbs oil
2 tsp Cumin
2-3 Peppers any color
1 tsp minced garlic
Combine ingredients and simmer for 20-30 minutes. Serve in tortillas.
The recipe called for fresh coriander--there is no such thing. Coriander is the seed for cilantro--but apparently they have completely different flavors. Needless to say, I used coriander but only put in one tsp (on the assumption that you always use less if it is ground than fresh and didn't want to overpower it). Feel free to add more (if you've got it) if you think it needs it.

Grilled Chicken Caesar Salad
Romaine lettuce
Vegetables (i.e. carrots, tomatoes, mushrooms)
Parmesan cheese, grated
Grilled chicken strips
Croutons
Caesar dressing
Rinse and slice/shred Romaine lettuce and place in large bowl. Place any other vegetable you wish in the bowl. Add parmesan cheese, chicken (defrost and use cold or warmed) and your desired amount of croutons. Drizzle all with Caesar dressing. Use your own desired amount, but it doesn't usually take very much. Toss together. Serve immediately, as it will wilt quickly.
Another option is to do each individual serving and adjust to each person's liking.
