My guess was salsa verde. Contrary to popular belief, Comp loves Mexicans.

Since comp probably won't be back anytime soon, we'll just say that's what it is.

Even if he comes back and says differently. He probably don't even know. Lol.

Chefs, please open your baskets!

And you must use: graham crackers....grape tomatoes....salsa verde.....and whole roasted chicken. You will have 30 minutes on the clock. Time starts now.

You know, out of all the different contest I've seen on those cooking shows, I think that's the one I would have done the best. I think I could have nailed it.

I met one of the chefs that won Chopped. She signed my Chopped cookbook that my son bought me for Christmas. :)

My son-in-law likes to pour classic coca cola on piglets he smokes. He seems to think it helps the skin become prettier and more appetizing.

I'm curious as to what your preparation would have been?

Good question. It's kinda hard to answer without knowing what other ingredients are available in the pantry and refrigerator.

But, just those 4.

I would carefully pull the skin off the chicken.

Dice some of the chicken meat and the tomatoes and crush the crackers. Mix it all into a stuffing and wrap it in the chicken skins like a wrap. Serve the salsa over them. Hoping the heat of the salsa will pair well with the sweetness of the cracker.

Or, shred and chop some chicken with the skin, crush some crackers and mix it together with the salsa and make little cakes, like crab cakes. Pan Fry them and make a rose garnish with the tomato.

Why is it damned nigh impossible to get honest to goodness tamales at restaurants east of Texas? Has not the diaspora of Mexican and Central American immigrants reached sufficient saturation? Why do folks settle for the pap being served as "tamales" in these restaurants? Double-you-tee-eff?

I'm sure there would have been stuff like wine, chicken stock, etc in case deglazing and making a sauce was needed. I think they usually have plenty of seasoning and stuff, but they are bad to leave out stuff that naturally pairs with the protein. Either way, sounds like a winner.

Probably been a tie, only so much you can do with just those four.

Yesterday, I left for work in the dark (normal). When I arrived home that evening, a big branch of my gypsy pepper plant laden with fruit had broken off. What to do with these immature greenish-yellow peppers? There is not sweetness to them yet...

I guess you already thought about putting them in a paper bag to see if they would ripen?

You could sauté them a little in vegetable oil or butter to bring out whatever flavor they might have, or just dice them and use them in something just for color and/or texture, rice, potato salad, pasta etc.
