Ingredients

For strawberry salsa
1 each serrano pepper fresh, or jalapeno chili
1 cup strawberries finely chopped
1 cup white onion finely chopped
2 tablespoons coriander fresh, finely chopped
1/2 teaspoon lime juice fresh
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon sugar if desired
3 each corn tortillas 5 inch
1 x vegetable oil for frying
1 each avocado firm

Directions

Wearing rubber gloves, remove stems, seeds, and ribs from chili and chop fine.

Stack tortillas and cut them in half.

Cut stacks crosswise into 1/2-inch-thick strips and in a heavy skillet heat 1/2 inch oil over moderate heat until hot but not smoking.

Working in two batches, fry tortilla strips until crisp and golden, about 30 seconds, and with a slotted spoon transfer to paper towels to drain.

Sprinkle fried tortilla strips with salt to taste.

Halve the avocado, removing the pit, and peel.

Slice each half lengthwise into 6 wedges.

Slice chicken into 6 wedges and fan ,with the avocado, onto 2 plates.

Spoon about 1/2 cup strawberry salsa over each fan and mound crispy tortilla strips alongside.

Pear & Lamb Kebabs With Harpoon Ale-Rosemary Pan Sauce

To make the kebabs, you’ll need eight 10-inch wooden or bamboo skewers, soaked in water for 20 minutes. Metal skewers may overcook the lamb, so use only metal if you like your meat well done.
