Fried Green Tomatoes and Salad of Arugula, Avocado, BBQ Chicken Slices and Gorgonzola
I didn't even get everything in that title. This salad also had romaine and radishes. Altogether a nice combination, especially with the side of Fried Green Tomatoes. I loved that movie, and have been (in the back of my mind - the food file) wanting to give them a try ever since. So, humming along the produce aisle the other day, I came upon the fruit and veggie guy unloading tomatoes into a bin, and there were these green ones in with the ripe reds. Why would anyone pick tomatoes that green, unless for this dish? Tell me that. Tomatoes should ripen on the vine, shouldn't they? Am I naive? At any rate, you now have the back story on my supper. I'm sure you all were curious.
As for our salad, I had left-over Teriyaki Chicken, since Bob has been Barbecuing almost every weekend, some fresh arugula and Gorgonzola, which sounded like the perfect accompaniment for our fried side. You do not need to buy prepared barbecue sauce. I am going to divulge my secret Teriyaki Chicken recipe here (this is almost a staple in Hawaii). We'll start with that. Cooked chicken is not all that photogenic however, so just imagine the scent and flavors coming off your grill. Unbeatable really.
