After craving food from one of my favorite places I gave in and tried to recreate my favorite drink and appetizer.
Tostones con Pollo is so easy to make and customize however you like. Vegetarians can do it without meat at all or with seafood, and if you want something heavier I've had something similar with shredded pork on top. I'm down for tostones topped with anything, especially if it involves a good sauce.
I made these with Goya's tostones from the grocer's freezer section, then topped with with heavily seasoned chicken sauteed with onions and red pepper. I missed the mushrooms, but the rain outside was too crazy for me to venture out lol.
After laying out the tostones, I topped with chicken, then with shredded mozzarella and cheddar cheeses. Place the oven-safe dish in the broiler or oven. just enough to melt the cheese, then top with salsa before serving. I skipped the salsa because I really don't like tomatoes, I tolerate them HA!
The White Satin Martini was also super easy for me to recreate. Just mixed some light coconut milk, lime juice, ground ginger, triple sec, and coconut rum. You can variate that in any way you like, I put extra ginger because it makes it a little spicy, and so yummy. If you like a sweeter drink you can add some sugar or liquid sweetener but the alcohol should sweeten it enough.
If you're near a Bahama Breeze have a drink for me, if not let me know how it goes recreating your favorite restaurant treats!!
Thanks for stopping by!!
