Chicken with chili

[ansostuff.livejournal.com]

This is my Mum´s recepie, and even if it looks very spicy it´s not too hot.

4-5 persons

6 filets of chicken (or 200 grams per person)
200 grams of crawfish tales (or large shrimps)
1 teaspoon white sugar
2 finely chopped "boats" of garlic
1 finely chopped chili (remove the seeds if you don´t want it too hot)
5-6 spring onions, finely chopped
fresh basil
3 decilitre (dl) cream or similar
chili powder, garlic powder, salt, pepper and oil

Chop very finely garlic, chili and spring onions. Marinate the chicken in garlic, chili, spring onions and oil for about an hour. Put sugar on the crawfish and set it in the fridge for an hour. Fry the chicken that has been marinated (remvove the vegetables first). Fry the vegetables used in the marinade together with finely chopped basil, a pinch of garlic powder, chili powder and salt and pepper. Add the cream. Add the chicken and just before serving add the crawfish. Cook rice and make a salad.

Sounds interesting. I should try it. Although I might leave out the shrimps. I'm not much of a "fish-person" even though I am Dutch :)

The cream, do you mean something like whipping cream?

Yes, allthough I used cream made for using in cooking, not to whipping. But you can also use whipping cream.

Yum! Sounds great. I would probably leave out the crawfish, though. I like crawfish, but I'm not much for mixing my meats.

It sounds kind of strange, but it was good. :)
