MEXICAN CHICKEN- OAMC

Steps:

• In a large Dutch oven, cook the onion and garlic in oil until tender.
• Add in all ingredients (including spices) except for chicken. Bring to a boil.
• Reduce heat and simmer 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.
• Add the cooked chicken; continue simmering another 10 minutes or until the chicken is heated through and the barley is tender.
• To freeze: cool, spoon into quart-sized freezer bags, label, and freeze flat.
• To serve: Thaw chicken mixture. Heat in a skillet until hot. Serve over corn tortilla chips or scoop into flour tortillas, fajita-style.

TEX-MEX CHICKEN PARMESAN

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• Put the chips in a food processor and pulse until they are finely ground; set aside.
• Slice the chicken breasts in half horizontally so you have 4 thin chicken cutlets.
• Set up a breading station with 3 shallow dishes: Stir together the flour, chili powder and 1/2 teaspoon salt in the first dish. Beat the eggs in the second dish and add the tortilla chips to the third dish. Coat a cutlet in the flour. Dip in the egg, letting any excess drip off and then press into the tortilla chips. Transfer to a plate and bread the remaining cutlets.
• Heat 1/4 cup of the oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat until a piece of the breading sizzles when added to the oil. Add 2 breaded cutlets to the oil, making sure they don't touch each other. Fry until golden brown on both sides, 3 to 4 minutes per side. Remove to a paper towel-lined plate. Add the remaining 1/4 cup oil to the skillet, heat and then fry the remaining cutlets.
• Evenly spread 1/2 cup salsa on the bottom of a 9-by-13-inch baking dish. Arrange the chicken in a single layer on top. Pour 1/4 cup of salsa on top of each piece of chicken. Shingle the cheese evenly over the chicken.
• Bake until the cheese is bubbling and golden brown, 25 to 30 minutes.
• Sprinkle with the jalapeno and cilantro.
