Dingo Breakfast
A yawn, a leak, and a good look around.

• Hyper-sensitized
I have to apologize. For the few of you out there who read this blog, I'm sorry for not posting the past few days. I've been all over the place, making decisions about my business, trying to talk to investors, trying to decide who I want to develop my site, putting thoughts into words and every time I went to blog, I was just drawing a blank. Not cool. No one likes a blog slacker.

That in mind, I'm providing you with a really fantastic recipe, a dinner I threw together based on a recipe I found on Epicurious:

Chicken Pasta with Peach and Cucumber Salsa

3/4 lb - 1 lb Pappardelle's Cilantro-Lime Linguine

4 chicken breast halves
juice of one lime
salt & pepper
lemon juice for basting

Salsa:
2 cups diced, pitted peaches (I left the peels on, you can unpeel them if you like)
1 cup diced unpeeled English hothouse cucumber
3/4 cup diced red bell pepper
1/3 cup chopped fresh cilantro
2 TBSP fresh lime juice (I'm liberal with lime juice, it may have been a little more than that)
2 TBSP apricot preserves
1-2 tsp chopped canned *chipotle chiles
*Chipotle chiles canned in a spicy tomato sauce, sometimes called adobo, available in most Latin American sections of supermarkets

Prepare salsa about 1-2 hours ahead of time.
Chicken breasts should be rubbed with salt and pepper, marinate in lime juice for 10-15 minutes. Broil chicken until lightly browned - baste with lemon juice to keep chicken moist while broiling. (Check to make sure you're not going to kill anyone with your undercooked chicken.)

Once chicken is done, slice chicken and toss with freshly cooked pasta and salsa. Serve warm or cold.


Enjoy, you frothing-at-the-mouth-hungry bloggers. Cheers!
