Island Chicken Sandwiches

Ingredients

    Island Chicken Sandwiches
  • 3 – 3 1/2-pound broiler-fryer chicken, cut up
  • 6 cups water
  • 1 teaspoon finely shredded lime peel
  • 1/4 cup fresh lime juice
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon lemon pepper
  • 1/4 cup flaked coconut
  • 1/2 cup finely chopped green onion
  • 2 jalapeno peppers, finely chopped
  • Pita bread rounds or flour tortillas
  • Spinach leaves and/or peeled and sliced papaya or mango

Rinse chicken; pat dry. Place chicken in a 4 1/2-quart Dutch oven. Add water. Bring to boiling; reduce heat. Simmer, covered, for 40 minutes, or till chicken is tender and no pink remains. Remove chicken from Dutch oven; reserve the broth for another use. When cool enough to handle, skin, bone, and shred chicken.

In a large mixing bowl combine warm chicken, lime peel, lime juice, salt, and lemon pepper; toss to mix. Stir in coconut, green onion, and jalapeno peppers.

Line pita pockets or tortillas with spinach and/or papaya or mango and add chicken mixture; roll up the flour tortillas, if using.

Notes: For optimum flavor, use freshly grated lime peel and fresh lime juice. You will be able to extract more juice if the lime is at room temperature and you roll it back and forth under your palm a few times before squeezing it. Be sure to wear gloves when handling fresh chili peppers to protect your eyes and skin against burning.

Mild Garden Salsa

Ingredients

    Mild Garden Salsa
  • 5 lbs of tomatoes
  • 2 lbs of chile peppers (your choice)
  • 1 lb of onions
  • 1 cup vinegar
  • 3 teaspoon salt (sea salt is great)
  • 1/2 teaspoon pepper

Wear plastic gloves or rubber gloves while handling peppers.

Peel, wash and dry peppers. Slit each pepper on its side to allow steam to escape. Peel peppers using one of the following ways. Place chilies in the oven at 400 degrees or broiler for 6-8 minutes until skins are blistered. You can also roast the chilies on a cast iron griddle or pan once roasted remove to plate and cover with a damp towel. This will make them easier to peel.

Let stand for 2-3 minutes and start peeling and removing seeds; once they are peeled and seeds are removed you can start chopping the peppers

Wash tomatoes and dip in boiling water for 30 to 60 seconds or until skin splits. Dip in cold water and slip skin off and remove core. Coarsely chop and combine peppers, onions and remaining ingredients in a large saucepan. Heat to boiling and simmer 10 minutes. Fill jars, leaving 1/2 inch at top Adjust lids and process in a boiling-water bath for 15 minutes.

It’s always best to use pints or smaller jars if you don’t use a lot of hot sauce, once you open the jar keep refrigerated until used.
