Wilted Spinach Sandwich, Cabbage Paruppusili, Spicy Chicken
While the combination of Wilted Spinach Sandwich, Cabbage Paruppusili, and Spicy Chicken probably sounds odd, the meal was anything but.
Sometimes leftovers make a wonderful dinner platter. Small amounts of Cabbage Paruppusili and Spicy Chicken chunks in tomato-based gravy leftover from a weekend lunch made a simple yet filling meal that night, with a quick sandwich to round it out.
Wilted Spinach Sandwich
- Wilt some baby spinach in olive oil, splash some pomegranate red wine vinegar off heat, toss in some feta and capers, allow to marinate till ready to serve.
- With kids around, String Cheese (Mozzarella sticks) is always handy. I like to cut up the string cheese into smaller chunks and microwave them for about 30 - 35 seconds (depending on the microwave power level) so it melts an stars browning at the edges. Makes a perfect cheese layer for sandwiches. (can use any favorite cheese or leave it out)
- When ready, toast the bread slices, squeeze out excess liquid from the marinated spinach, add the melted cheese, serve right away
Cabbage Paruppusili: The recipe is the same as any other paruppusili like Green Beans Paruppusili - substitute cabbage for green beans.
Spicy Chicken:
- Make a paste of onions, tomatoes, garlic, ginger, dry red chilies
- Pre-heat the oven to 400°F
- Marinate the chicken chunks in the masala paste for about 10 minutes (longer if desired)
- Combine the chicken chunks and the masala paste, some salt, brown sugar, and some Frank's Red Hot™ sauce and bake in 400°F oven for about 25 minutes or until chicken is cooked through
