Howdy

Light day today - but you probably figured that out. Busy day at work. Had a great trip around lunch. Went with a couple colleagues of mine from the War College to URI to talk about what they're doing to green up their campus. Lots of good ideas - hope to be able to share them with you soon.

I am here this eve with the Eco-Daughter enjoying daddy-daughter time. Other two kids are out, and the Eco-Wife is hanging with a gurlfreeend. E-D wants to share the recipe she fixed for us tonight ("you fixed it too" she says). She ate it when she went to South Africa. 

So here ya go:

Senegalese Chicken for Two (our version)

Half dozen chicken tenders (or two chicken breasts)

A dozen stuffed green olives (we had garlic in ours, but pimento ones are fine)

Half dozen pepperocinis

Dash of red pepper flakes

Dash of chili powder

1 small onion, diced

Salt and pepper

1/4 cup fresh lemon juice (about one lemon squeezed)

1 8oz can of chopped tomatos

Saute the chicken tenders over medium heat in a couple tablespoons of olive oil. When the chicken is about cooked through, toss in everything else except for the tomatos and lemon juice. When the onions start to get soft, deglaze the pan with the lemon juice and add the tomatos, juice and all. Stir and cook until everything is heated together. Salt/pepper to taste.

Serve with potato buds and beer - yeh, I know, but try it!
