Spicy Cucumber Salad<br />

with Lime Garlic Vinaigrette<br />

• 2 cucumbers, very finely sliced<br />

• 1 jalapeno, seeded and finely<br />

diced<br />

• 2 cloves garlic, finely minced<br />

• 3 Tbsp. fresh lime juice<br />

• ½ orange bell pepper, diced<br />

• 3 small red onions, sliced in rings<br />

• ½ tsp. salt<br />

• Black pepper to taste<br />

• 3 Tbsp. olive oil<br />

• 4 Tbsp chopped cilantro, to taste<br />

Slice jalapeno and red onion using a<br />

mandolin slicer or sharp knife and<br />

add to a medium sized bowl. Add<br />

lime juice, diced bell pepper, salt and<br />

black pepper. Incorporate olive<br />

oil with a whisk. Add cucumbers<br />

and cilantro and stir well.<br />

Serve immediately or let it<br />

sit in the fridge to marinate<br />

for a couple hours. Make<br />

sure to let the salad sit on<br />

the counter for a little<br />

while before serving if<br />

it’s been in the fridge; the<br />

olive oil solidifies slightly<br />

when it gets cold.<br />

Cilantro Lime Grilled<br />

Chicken Tenders<br />

Marinade<br />

• ½ cup fresh lime juice<br />

• 3 tsp. fresh lime zest<br />

• ¼ cup olive oil<br />

• 4 Tbsp. fresh cilantro, chopped<br />

• 2 jalapenos, finely chopped<br />

• 4 garlic cloves, finely chopped<br />

• 1 Tbsp. honey<br />

• 2 tsp. salt<br />

Whisk until well combined.<br />

• 1 lb. skinless, boneless chicken<br />

breast cut into strips.<br />

• 2 jalapenos, sliced<br />

• Bell pepper<br />

Rinse chicken and pat dry with<br />

paper towels. Add to the marinade,<br />

stir and coat evenly. Marinate for 30<br />

minutes. Thread on small skewers,<br />

alternating with jalapeno and bell<br />

pepper. Fire up the grill and brush<br />

with oil. Add a little bit of the garlic,<br />

cilantro, and jalapeno on top of the<br />

chicken and grill until golden brown<br />

and charred on both sides. Serve<br />

immediately. You can make these<br />

with a cast-iron grill pan or a regular<br />

skillet, or even broil in the oven.<br />

Grilled Bread<br />

(Garlic or Plain)<br />

• 8 slices of rustic bread<br />

• 2 Tbsp. olive oil<br />

• 1 clove of garlic, peeled and<br />

sliced in half<br />

• Butter<br />

• Salt<br />

Heat grill to medium-high heat<br />

(375-450 degrees). Brush each side<br />

of the bread lightly with olive oil.<br />

Place slices on a baking sheet and<br />

sprinkle with 1 pinch of salt on each.<br />

Grill 1-2 minutes per side until<br />

crispy and just starting to char on<br />

the edges. If desired, rub each slice<br />

with the cut side of the garlic and a<br />

bit of butter or additional olive oil.<br />

Add another sprinkle of kosher salt<br />

if serving plain.<br />
