Cajun Chicken Pizza w/ Fresh Cilantro

Skipped dinner tonight, so I got pretty hungry around 9:30pm. I was cooking up a bunch of cubed chicken breast for my lunch this week, and remembered I had a mini boboli in the fridge from last night. Eureka!

I did this:

1. Cube a bunch of raw chicken breast. Salt, pepper, and f*ckin' bury it in spicy cajun seasoning

2. Throw it into a pan with a little bit of olive oil on the bottom. Cook until...cooked

3. Grab a boboli crust from the store and smear some olive oil on it (all the way to the edge, for a nice crispy crust.)

4. add shredded cheddar, shredded mozz, and chicken cubes

5. cook until the pizza is crispy

6. drizzle a touch of olive oil on top, and rip up a bunch of fresh cilantro on the top

Damn Tasty Chicken Sandwich

Hi Braden! (I figure it's just you and me on here, so when I post, I'm generally thinking of you.) So I made a panini on my George Foreman grill tonight (yes, I own a George Foreman grill and I'm not ashamed to admit it) and while it's hardly revolutionary, it's definitely delicious, so I thought I'd tell you about it.

I sauteed some sliced mushrooms in a little bit of butter and garlic salt. I thought about onions, but thought it would be too much and maybe too messy because this sandwich gets messy as is, but I'm pro-sauteed onion, so next time, maybe onions.

Anyway, I took two thin but broad slices of good crusty olive oil and rosemary bread, lightly buttered one side of each, and threw them on the Foreman (at 375) butter side down, just for about a minute until they got a little toasty and took them off. Then I sprinkled some Famous Dave's wing spice on both sides of a thawed boneless skinless chicken breast. (You could use any cajun spice for this. I like Famous Dave's spices, though.) I grilled that on one side of the Foreman. Once that was done, I put a piece of pepper jack cheese on one slice of bread, put the chicken on top of the cheese, put the sauteed mushrooms on top of the chicken, then another piece of pepperjack on top of the mushrooms, then the other slice of bread. Then I put the whole sandwich on the other side of the Foreman til the cheese was melty.

And I know, you think it's done. You think, that sounds like a damn tasty chicken sandwich. And it would be. But then I take the sandwich off the Foreman and take the top piece of bread off (to which is stuck mushrooms and cheese) and pour two spoonfuls of buffalo sauce onto the chicken. Then I put that top piece back on, cut that sucker in half, and smile like an idiot because this, my friend, this is a DAMN tasty chicken sandwich.
