If you follow me on Instagram, you will know that I love Thai coconut curry. I make it pretty regularly when I’m not ordering it for takeout. I love the vibrancy of flavor and colors that are a part of Thai cuisine. At home I usually have red or green curry paste as well as some coconut milk in the cabinet.

Beautiful and easy chicken enchiladas. This is a perfect weeknight meal or make ahead frozen dish. Don’t choose between red or green enchiladas when you can have both!
I don’t make salads often. They just don’t do it for me. I usually only eat one when it comes with the meal. I wish I was a salad person, but I’m just not. However, after a recent trip that involved a lot of pasta, wine and a daily bagel, I thought it might be a great idea to make a few salads the following week. I decided on a nice roasted Chicken Cobb Salad with Avocado Lime Dressing. My husband really enjoyed it and suggested we have a few nice salads a week. Something I NEVER thought I would hear out of his mouth. Usually when I ask him what he wants for dinner, the answer is pizza, so when I heard him utter those words, I almost fell out of my seat.
I am naming this one after us Chicken Slimmer. This chicken dish represents all the things that Matt and I love: olives, salted meats, breaded chicken, cheese and a little bit of lemon. I have not seen or had this anywhere, but who’s to say it doesn’t already exist? After a quick Google search, I didn’t see it. Have I created something new for the entire culinary world to enjoy?!?!? Doubtful, but I’m rolling with it.

Ingredients
• 1 pizza dough
• 1 chicken breast
• ½- 1 cup of buffalo sauce
• 1 celery stalk sliced
• ¼ cup of shredded carrots
• ¼- ½ cup of blue cheese crumbles
• ¼ cup of ranch
• ¼ cup of chopped fresh cilantro
• 8oz. container of plain mozzarella balls
• ¼ of a red onion sliced thin (probably won’t need all of it)
• 2 green onions chopped
Directions
• You are going to want to cook the chicken first; this is where you can kind of do whatever you want. I personally cook it in the Instant Pot with a little chicken broth and then take it out, shred it and add it back in with a cup of buffalo sauce and cook it again for another minute to absorb the sauce. You can also grill, bake or fry it. I would suggest if you fry it, not to add it till the very end of the pizza cooking so it doesn’t get soggy. You can toss it in sauce or drizzle it over the top.
• Set your oven to whatever your dough suggests. I always let it heat up for at least 20 minutes to get nice and hot and leave the pan you’re going to cook it on in to heat up as well. Just be careful when you are placing the dough on it because it will be HOT.
• I start by drizzling a thin layer of buffalo sauce on the stretched dough, leaving just a little around the edges without. Now I add the shredded chicken then blue cheese crumbles and mozzarella balls. On top of those I add the celery, shredded carrots and red onion. I then drizzle a little more buffalo sauce; I leave off the green onion and the cilantro and Ranch dressing. I bake it till crispy and then drizzle it with Ranch dressing and sprinkle it with green onions and cilantro.
