That might be worth trying. I once tried to make it, but it tasted like crap.
What brand of Marsala wine do you use, or does it make any difference?

It doesn't really make any difference John. i've used the $9.95 a
bottle stuff and also the $3.00 hootch and it doesn't seem to matter.

Found something I really like watching the Super Bowl

I made up a batch of home made salsa (not that ketchup and chili
powder stuff you get at the store) and I put some on a hot dog. That
was pretty good stuff.

Recipe? Or are we supposed to be long distance mind readers?

The trick with marsala sauce is you need to start with some Prosciutto
in the pan with the butter and add a splash of heavy whipping cream,
then a big jolt of the marsalla and cook it down slow. If you get it
too hot you will "break" the sauce.

I think that might be what happened last time. My wife's gone for a week, so I
get to practice. Might give that a shot tomorrow night.

There's a restaurant in town called the Cactus Cantina. One of their
specialties
is 'Pollo Chipotle'. They wouldn't give me the recipe, so I played around
with a
couple variations and came up with this. It's as good as the original.


Chipotle Chicken - John's Way

1 large green pepper (cut in thin strips)
1 large red pepper (cut in thin strips)
1 large onion (cut in thin strips)
2 chicken breasts (halves)

¾ cup whipping cream
¾ cup chicken broth
2 or 3 canned chipotle peppers* (remove seeds)
1 tbsp adobe sauce from the chipotle peppers can
3-5 cloves minced garlic
1 tsp lemon juice (fresh is best)
½ tsp ground cumin

*three will make this quite warm!

With chicken breasts on their sides, slice each in half lengthwise. Put on
hot
grill for about 3 minutes on each side. Don't overcook! As chicken is doing
it's
thing, sauté the peppers and onion to your desired degree of doneness in a
large
pan. Once chicken is done, cut it into strips about ¼" thick.

Put the chicken broth, the chipotle peppers, the adobe sauce from the can,
the
garlic, the cumin and the lemon juice in a blender. Blend for a few seconds
to
liquefy everything.

Put the chicken strips, the peppers and onions, and the liquefied chipotles,
etc, into the frying pan. While stirring, bring everything to a simmer. Let
simmer for a few minutes just to get everything nice and hot again.

Once everything is hot and done, add the whipping cream. Stir and bring
everything back to a simmer. Remove from heat and serve with fresh soft
tacos
immediately.

And, a smear of sour cream on the taco adds a nice touch.

Remember - everything's flexible!

Note: The addition of about 5 tablespoons of honey mustard transforms the
sauce
into a great sauce for grilled, fried, or broiled salmon.
=====
Sound great!

Someone please tell the cultural ignoramus that it's a tortilla, not a
taco.

It is simple, Boy George. You make it your way, he makes it his.
Besides Dufus, did you not consider you can apply the sour cream
BEFORE you wrap the ingredient in a tortilla to make the taco?

Like the liberal kumquat you are; probably not..

I can hardly wait for herring's version of Chicken a la Popeye, Floating
in an Ocean of Greasy Spice, accompanied by your favorite variety of
wine in a plastic bag.

A taco is just a tortilla folded over and held in your hand.

A quesadilla is just a tortilla folded over and fried.
