AZTEC CHILI SALAD



Aztec Chili Salad image

A different view of chili. Ground turkey or shredded chicken can be used for this recipe instead of chili. Serve on a bed of lettuce with jicama wedges arranged around the sides of the plate. Great for a Ladies Luncheon for something a little different. This can also be served as a "meal-in-inself".

WICKLEWOOD'S AZTEC RICE



Wicklewood's Aztec Rice image

I love the crunch of the vegetables in this rice dish. Water or stock can be used as long as it is boiling, adding turmeric or saffron to the liquid will turn the rice a beautiful golden colour and with the inclusion of South American vegetables such as sweet corn and peppers the result is a dish that looks like jewel encrusted Aztec gold.. Don't be tempted to remove the lid while cooking as the steam needs to build up to fluff up the grains. Delicious with chili, chicken or fish dishes, try swapping the peppers for peas or diced carrot. Times only apply to white rice,,for brown or wild rice add another 30mins.

AZTEC CHILI HOT CHOCOLATE



Aztec Chili Hot Chocolate image

I think this is off about.com, I don't remember, but it's lovely, and perfect for keeping warm. If I don't have chocolate, I use cocoa or hot chocolate instead of real chocolate. The chili chocolate mixture is also said to induce... romance!

AZTEC SOUTH AMERICAN CHOCOLATE AND CHILLI GLAZED PORK STRIPS



Aztec South American Chocolate and Chilli Glazed Pork Strips image

A fabulous combination of heat and sweet makes this chilli and chocolate glazed pork a real winner. And, this Sophie Grigson recipe uses a very cheap cut of pork, so it makes a very economical meal; however, the unusual and exciting flavours would make this a great dinner party dish. Serve with assorted stir-fried vegetables, relishes and sauteed potatoes. The Aztec's were famous for using chocolate in their cooking, both savoury and sweet - and the addition of a good quality chocolate adds a deep and delicious dimension to this humble cut of belly pork.
