Add the seasoned chicken to the skillet, and cook and stir until the chicken pieces are browned on all sides, about 10 minutes.

CATFISH TACOS WITH CILANTRO LIME SLAW AND CHIPOTLE CREAM SAUCE
Steps:
- Catfish Tacos:
- For the chipotle cream sauce: Put all the ingredients in a blender, except the heavy cream and salt and pepper. Blend well. Remove from the blender to a mixing bowl and slowly whisk in the heavy cream. All the cream may not be needed. The correct consistency, is like a crema. Add salt and pepper, to taste. Add more chipotle in adobo for more spice, if desired. Cover and refrigerate.
- For the slaw: Add the cabbages to a mixing bowl. Toss with the carrot, onion, cilantro, olive oil and lime juice, to taste. Season with salt and pepper, to taste. Mix well, cover and refrigerate.
- For the catfish balls: In a hot skillet, over medium heat, add the butter, onion, jalapeno, and garlic. As it is cooking, add a pinch of salt, cracked pepper, paprika and cumin. Saute until tender, about 3 to 4 minutes. Set aside to cool.
- Heat enough peanut oil in a deep-fryer or heavy-bottomed pot, to come halfway up the sides of the pot, to 350 degrees F.
- Remove any silver skin from the fillets. Pulse the catfish in the food processor until it is chopped, about 30 seconds. You don't want to puree the fish, just chop it into small chunks. Put the fish in a mixing bowl and add the cilantro, Creole mustard, eggs, Worcestershire sauce, mayonnaise and Jack cheese. Add the cooled onion mixture to the bowl along with another pinch of salt and pepper. Mix gently with a spoon, then gently mix in 1 cup of the panko bread crumbs. The consistency will still be wet, but still formable for the catfish balls. Put the remainder of the bread crumbs into a bowl. Scoop out the catfish mixture using a 2 tablespoon-size scoop and form into a ball shape. Don't make the catfish balls to be too big, they won't cook all the way through.
- Roll the balls in the panko bread crumbs, and refrigerate for 15 minutes. Carefully drop them into the hot oil and fry in batches of 5 or 6 depending on your fryer. Do not crowd. Fry the balls for about 3 to 4 minutes. They are done when they are slightly more than golden brown. Remove from the oil and let cool on a paper towel lined sheet pan. Check the first batch to make sure they are cooked through. Repeat the process with the remaining fish mixture.
- Remove the chipotle sauce and the slaw from the refrigerator and let stand at room temperature to remove some of the chill. Heat the tortillas. Stack 7 or 8 tortillas and wrap in a damp kitchen or paper towel and microwave for about 15 seconds. Repeat with remaining tortillas. They can also be wrapped in foil and heated in the oven.
- Add 2 or 3 catfish balls, depending on the size, to a tortilla, and slightly crush them. Some people tear them completely apart, it is up to you. Top with a little grated Jack cheese, chipotle cream sauce and slaw. Repeat with remaining tortillas and fillings. Arrange on a serving platter and enjoy with a nice cerveza.

"FUNNEL VISION... PIE ON THE PRIZE" CARAMEL APPLE PIE WITH CINNAMON ICE CREAM AND CHIPOTLE CARAMEL DRIZZLE
Steps:
- For the cinnamon ice cream: Mix together cornstarch and 2 tablespoons milk in a bowl to make a slurry. Whisk the cream cheese into the slurry until smooth and set aside. Fill a large bowl with ice and water.
- Combine cream, sugar, corn syrup, cinnamon, salt and remaining 2 1/2 cups milk in a 4-quart saucepan. Bring to a rolling boil over medium heat and boil for 4 minutes. Remove from heat and gradually whisk in the cornstarch slurry mixture.
- Bring the mixture back to a boil over medium heat and switch to a spatula. Cook, stirring, until slightly thickened, 1 to 2 minutes. Remove from the heat. (If you want to add the brandy or whiskey, now is the time.)
- Pour into a bowl and place bowl inside ice bath. Stir until cool. Spin the ice cream in an ice cream maker until frozen, then place in freezer overnight for full flavor results.
- For the funnel cake batter: Combine milk, vanilla and eggs in a bowl and whisk to combine.
- Combine flour, baking powder, cardamom and salt in a bowl and whisk to mix and aerate.
- Add dry to wet and combine thoroughly until there are no lumps and it is smooth (you can also use a blender to ensure that it is a smooth batter, but if you can't, put some elbow grease into it and whisk it... if you can't, there's a whole other problem going on there... seek medical advice or suck it up and put your big-girl panties on). Set aside in refrigerator until ready for use.
- For the apple pie filling: Stir together apples and lemon juice in a bowl. Set aside. Melt butter in a shallow pot, then add apples and stir to coat.
- Add liquor and quickly reduce by half, then stir together sugar, apple juice, cornstarch and cinnamon in a small bowl and add that. Continue to cook until apples are softened and mixture has thickened and reduced by half, then fold in caramel. Spread on a baking sheet for quick cooling. Don't eat too much of the filling, or there won't be enough for the actual dessert. (I'm looking at you, put the spoon down.)
- For the chipotle caramel sauce: Combine sugar, lemon juice and 1/2 cup water in a 2-quart pot thoroughly and clean down sides with a wet pastry brush to prevent crystallization.
- Bring to a boil and let it cook until medium amber color (don't touch it, don't stir it, don't even look at it sideways, or it will know and it will crystallize on you. Seriously though).
- Remove from heat and slowly whisk in heavy cream (it will steam and bubble and you should watch yourself or be scarred 4evah, hot sugar is no joke).
- Whisk in butter, chipotle, vanilla and salt until combined and smooth.
- To finish: Preheat oil to 370 degrees F in a deep-fryer.
- Lay a flour tortilla flat on a surface, then use a pastry brush to brush the entire outer edge with the funnel cake batter. Fill with 2 scoops apple pie filling, (don't be greedy or it won't roll and close) then roll up tight. Drop the whole thing in a shallow bowl of funnel cake batter and completely coat the entire baby burrito. Use tongs to gently place the battered rolled burrito in the fryer. Cook until golden brown, 3 to 5 minutes.
- Remove and place on a tray lined with paper towels. Place cooked pie in a serving dish and top with a generous scoop of cinnamon ice cream and a nice drizzle of chipotle caramel (don't be stingy). Now shove a bite in your piehole! Dahhhhhhlish!

Add the all-purpose flour and cook, stirring with a whisk constantly until the consistency of batter and there are no lumps, about 5 minutes. Let the mixture reach a simmer. Stir occasionally until the roux is brown and smooth, up to 20 minutes. Remove from the heat and set aside.
- Melt the remaining tablespoon of butter in a saucepan over medium heat. Add the shallots and garlic and cook until translucent. Add the wine and bring to a boil. Stir in the chipotles, adobo sauce and lime juice. Reduce the heat to medium-low. Add the cream, chicken base and hot sauce and simmer until reduced by one-third. Thicken with the roux a little bit at a time, making sure to whisk it in so it doesn't clump, until desired consistency is reached. Finish with salt and pepper.
- To finish the snapper: Heat a saute pan on medium heat. Lightly dust the snapper filet with the bronzing flour. Add 1 tablespoon of butter to the hot pan. Cook the filet until crispy golden brown, 3 to 4 minutes per each side. Finish with some lime chipotle cream sauce and the diced green onions.
