CHIPOTLE CHICKEN CHILI WITH FLAMING TEQUILA-PEPPER SALSA & AVOCADO RANCH DRESSING
Steps:
- Place a large heavy-bottomed pot over medium-high heat with 2 tablespoons of the EVOO. Add the bacon to the pan and brown, about 3 to 4 minutes. Add the chicken to the pot and brown, 5 to 6 minutes, stirring occasionally to break up the lumps. Add the pureed chipotle, cumin, coriander, and smoked paprika, then stir for 1 minute. Add the onion and garlic to the pot and cook until tender, 5 minutes more. Add the tomato paste and chicken stock and some salt and pepper to the pot and bring the liquids up to a bubble. Reduce the heat to a simmer.
- While the chili is simmering, place a medium skillet over medium-high heat with the remaining 2 tablespoons of EVOO. Add the bell peppers, red onion, and jalapeño to the skillet and cook until tender, 4 to 5 minutes. Remove the skillet from the heat and add the tequila. Return the skillet to the heat and flame the tequila to burn off most of the alcohol. Add the lime juice, the cilantro, and some salt to the salsa.
- To a food processor bowl add the avocado, chives, lemon juice, and buttermilk. Process until smooth and then season with salt and pepper.
- Serve up the chili with some of the tequila-pepper salsa and avocado ranch dressing. Garnish with tortilla chips.
PRESSURE-COOKER TEQUILA SALSA CHICKEN
I had this dish at a local Mexican restaurant when celebrating a friend's birthday. I fell in love with the spicy, smoky flavor from the tequila and decided to try Instant Pot salsa chicken at home. Boy, was it a success! It's also great stuffed into flour tortillas or for making nachos. —Trisha Kruse, Eagle, Idaho

Steps:
- 1. Place the cream in a chilled mixer bowl or in a large metal bowl. Beat with a mixer until soft peaks form, starting on the slow speed and gradually increasing the speed to high. The total beating time will be 6 to 8 minutes. When soft peaks have formed, add the confectioners' sugar, cinnamon, and tequila. Continue beating the cream until stiff peaks form, about 2 minutes longer. Don't overbeat the cream or it will start to turn to butter. The tequila whipped cream can be made several hours ahead. Refrigerate it, covered, until ready to serve.
- 2. Lightly brush each slice of pound cake with butter on both sides. Cook the pound cake, following the instructions below for any of the grills, until lightly toasted. If desired, rotate each slice a quarter turn after 1 minute to create a handsome crosshatch of grill marks. You may need to cook the pound cake slices in more than one batch.
- 3. Place the pound cake slices on plates. Top each serving with a spoonful of Pineapple "Salsa" and a dollop of tequila whipped cream, garnish with a sprig of mint, and serve at once.
- CONTACT GRILL:
- Preheat the grill; if your contact grill has a temperature control, preheat the grill to high. Place the drip pan under the front of the grill. When ready to cook, lightly oil the grill surface. Place the slices of pound cake on the hot grill, then close the lid. The pound cake will be done after cooking 2 to 4 minutes.
- GRILL PAN:
- Place the grill pan on the stove and preheat it to medium-high over medium heat. When the grill pan is hot a drop of water will skitter in the pan. When ready to cook, lightly oil the ridges of the grill pan. Place the slices of pound cake in the hot grill pan. They will be done after cooking 2 to 4 minutes per side.
- BUILT-IN GRILL:
- Preheat the grill to high, then, if it does not have a nonstick surface, brush and oil the grill grate. Place the pound cake slices on the hot grate. They will be done after cooking 2 to 4 minutes per side.
- FREESTANDING GRILL:
- Preheat the grill to high; there's no need to oil the grate. Place the pound cake slices on the hot grill. They will be done after cooking 3 to 5 minutes per side.
- FIREPLACE GRILL:
- Rake red hot embers under the gridiron and preheat it for 3 to 5 minutes; you want a hot, 2 to 3 Mississippi fire. When ready to cook, brush and oil the gridiron. Place the pound cake slices on the hot grate. They will be done after cooking 2 to 4 minutes per side.

TEQUILA LIME PINEAPPLE SALSA
Saw this in People magazine while I was in a waiting room. I will have to find someone from whom to scrounge some tequila, as I don't normally buy that. If you buy jalapenos ahead of time, they will turn red - much cheaper than buying the red ones. I try to pick a couple that are already turning, but are still in the green bin. Recipe from Border Grill in LA. Please note that the nutritional information will be off, as you use only half of the pineapple.

TEQUILA- LIME TILAPIA WITH WARM TOMATO SALSA
Steps:
- 1. To marinade the fish, place in a shallow pan and sprinkle with spices and chopped cilantro and diced tomato. Squeeze lime juice over the fish and pour in the tequila. Cover with plastic wrap and spoon marinade over fish every half hour or so for 2 hours. Make sure to refrigerate the fish in between bastings. 2. Melt butter in a frying pan and gently sautee the onions until they are soft and golden brown. Toss the onions in the pan until they form an even, uniform layer on the bottom of the pan. Increase heat to high. 3. Remove the fish from the marinade and lay over the onions, and pour in about 1/3 of the marinade. Cover the fish. 4. Remove the tomato from the marinade and heat in a separate pan just long enough to heat it up and kill any microbes or parasites. Food poisoning ain't fun. 5. After 2 minutes, turn the tilapia over. Add more marinade and cover for another 2 minutes. 6. When the fish is cooked through, scoop the filets up with as much onion as possible and serve over spanish rice.
