Description

It’s not Mexican. It’s not Greek. It’s freaking good though.

Ingredients

  • 1 cup Chopped Cilantro
  • ½ cups Plain Greek Yogurt
  • ¼ cups Lime Juice
  • 2 Tablespoons Extra Virgin Olive Oil, Divided
  • 4 whole Chicken Sausages, Cut Into 1-inch Chunks
  • 2 cloves Garlic, Minced
  • ½ cups Cherry Tomatoes, Halved
  • 4 cups Baby Spinach
  • 1 pinch Coarse Salt And Freshly Ground Pepper
  • 8 whole Corn Tortillas, Grilled Or Lightly Toasted

Preparation

Start with your sauce. In a small food processor, blitz up the cilantro, yogurt and lime juice. Stick her in the fridge until you’re ready to eat.

Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a medium skillet. Add the sausages and cook until both sides are nice and browned, 4 minutes. Remove from the pan and set aside.

Add a little bit of water to the pan to deglaze. Scrape up the browned bits from the bottom of the pan. Once the water has evaporated, add a little more oil and add the garlic. Bloom for 30 seconds. Add the tomatoes and spinach and cook until wilted, 2 minutes. Toss in a little pinch of salt and pepper.

Stack two corn tortillas on top of each other and layer on some sausage, sautéed spinach and tomatoes.

Drizzle with that fabulous cilantro-yogurt sauce and get on it, dude.

Just remember that there is a segment of the population that think Cilantro tastes like soap. 2 out of 5 people in our family do not like it, and I am one of them. Other than the Cilantro, your recipe looks yummy. Thanks!
