Cilantro can go in anything (almost) Mexican & Chinese - especially Chinese Chicken Salad - I make a mock one: Place equal parts cabbage & lettuce chopped/shredded (for a large group use one of each) in a large bowl Add coarsely chopped/snipped cilantro Two packages Ramen noodles - uncooked (use the seasoning for something else) while still in the pacakge, use the palm of your hand to crush the noodles, then pour over the greens - set aside Put enough oil (olive, bacon fat, canolla. . .) in fry pan to cover the bottom (about 2TBS) - use med-hi to hi heat Add chicken - cut into bite sized pieces (either raw or already cooked - raw will take a bit longer to cook) While cooking the chicken add seasonings like garlic (preferably fresh chopped), chopped red pepper (to taste), 5-spice powder, 3 TBS chunky peanut butter, sesame seeds When done, pour chicken mix over the greens Pour one bottle Italian dressing over this Toss & serve Have additional hot peppers, salt & pepper, on the side Sharen Rund Bloechl Lockheed Martin Enterprise Information Systems Sunnyvale Data Center sharen.rund_bloechl@lmco.com Phone: 408-756-5432 [or] Fax: 408-756-0912 srund@svl.ems.lmco.com LMnet: 8-326-5432 Pager: 408-539-5146 web: http://webpager.lmms.lmco.com/perl/mtrocall.cgi > [or] Operator Assist: 1-800-725-5079, pin 408-539-5146 > > > > ---------- > From: AB Garbot[SMTP:mango@uss.net] > Reply To: AB Garbot > Sent: Friday, May 08, 1998 3:30 PM > To: 'chile-heads' > Subject: [CH] Cilantro Recipes > > Hello, All! > > I have a bumper crop of cilantro for the first time ever - I have a new > greenhouse window in the kitchen and started some herbs from seed really > early this year. > > Anyway, I am trying to find some good, spicy recipes containing cilantro. > Of course, I am using plenty in fresh salsas, but there must be other > recipes that use more than a sprig or two! > > Any help will be greatly appreciated! > > -Angie > mango@uss.net > > "Always do sober what you said you'd do drunk.
