Garlic Butter Roasted Corn with Feta

 

   I loooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooove, love love love LOOOOOVE corn! Ok, I think I made my point understood. I'd put corn in everything!!! Naturally, I also love boiled corn in the summer! When I found this recipe on my favorite blog (Serving Dumplings), a recipe that also has garlic and feta, I was sold!!! You can boil your corn beforehand or just roast it like I did. It's just a new way of having your corn in the summer :D

Ingredients:

- 2 corn cobs (one per person or if you love corn, more than one :D)

- 50g (1/2 cup) butter, melted

- 2 garlic cloves, grated

- 1/2 tsp smoked paprika

- salt + black pepper

- 50g feta, crumbled

- chilies

Steps:

1. Preheat the oven to 230°C.

2. Line the corn cobs on a baking sheet, pour the melted butter, add garlic and sprinkle with smoked paprika, salt and pepper. Roast for 20-25 minutes, turning halfway through.

3. Remove from the oven, top with crumbled feta and chilies. Sprinkle with extra salt and pepper. Bon appetit! :)

Nachos

 

   Nachos is one of my favorite summery dishes to have from back in the days of Off the Wall, the restaurant my husband had. I love how easy it is to make, how tasty and crunchy it is and you'll love it just as much cos it's a summery MUST! So, let me teach you how to make your own Nachos to share with your friends over a party or have it for lunch or dinner yourselves :) No matter the occasion, nachos will surely be a crowd pleaser! :D

Ingredients for 1 tray (aprox. 4 people):

-4 wraps

-1 big or 2 small tomatoes

-1 stem of green onion

-corn

-beans

-olives

-2 chicken thighs

-tex Mex seasoning / chicken seasoning / grill mix

-a big roll of cascaval afumat (~250g), grated

-sour cream

-guacamole (freshly made)

Steps:

1. Cut the wraps into stripes then cut them again into triangles and fry them. Put salt on them when they come out of the pan.

2. Put the seasoning on the chicken, then pan fry it.

3. Put the nachos, the chicken and the cheese in the oven for about 5 min until the cheese melts

4. Have the veggies precut (diced) so that when you take the nachos out of the oven, you can put the rest of the veggies on top right away so that they stick with the cheese before it hardens. 

5. Dip the nachos in sour cream and / or guacamole when you eat it.  That's it! Bon appetit! :D
