Went out to one of my fave Little Rock places, Trio's.

Started with their Mediterranean Tapenade which has sundried tomatoes, olives, artichokes, and feta, served with lavash

Entree was a Berry Beef Tenderloin salad with white truffle vinaigrette

Dessert: some sort of pecan praline cheesecake.

And I'm back home in time for Matlock (that's for you el tigre).

butchered a whole chicken.

made smear with a pack of dry menudo mix (mexican oregano, chilis, onions), olive oil, garlic powder, little salt, and sambal (the asian chili paste). Slashed the chicke, rubbed on the goo, and it's roasting low in the oven.

Asian-Mexican flavor combo, who knows how it will turn out.

Avocado, red pepper, cucumber, mango salad/salsa on the side.

do you put a dressing on that? and do you think pineapple would go with those? i like to make big bowls of stuff like that to snack on but i can never get it right...one flavor of my dressing always overpowers everything else.

pineapple would work. I usually toss in a little diced purple onion, fresh jalapeno, and seeded diced roma tomatoes. Also, chopped fresh cilantro. It's all to taste, and there aren't too many rules.

for a dressing, i find that a good extra virgin olive oil and fresh squeezed lime juice is the way to go. toss lightly, pinch of kosher salt, little cracked pepper. The oil and lime lets the flavors come through, and keeps it fresh and light. Little More oil than lime, but fairly light on both.

thanks, i'm going to try that. also i've never seeded the tomatoes, just chopped them up. maybe that was messing with the dressing too. i was putting a tiny bit of vinegar in there and not lime..i'll definitely give the lime a try.

i find if i don't squeeze out the seeds i end up with the dish being more watery than i like, then i go overkill with dressing trying up the flavor again.

yeah, the lime works great with those flavors....esp if serving with any type of seeafood.
