Fou Maque Choux [RECIPE]

Fou Maque Choux is our spin on a Cajun classic. Blending some of our favorite flavors, it is a quick and filling side that pairs nicely with dishes like our Moroccan Pork Loin with Blackberry Glaze. (Photo by Jathan Fink, Jadeworks Entertainment)

Having traveled about the United States as much as we have, we tend to pick up culinary traditions all around the country. Maque Choux is a traditional side dish served throughout Louisiana. We first learned about it when we took a class at the New Orleans School of Cooking a few years back, although that recipe called for tomatoes.

In its place I’ve  added a touch of Tex-Mex flavor by adding the black beans and Mexican oregano. The ingredients blend together beautifully and make for one yummy new riff on a Cajun classic. Enjoy!

We love getting multiple meals from one chicken. In this case, we use two cups of shredded chicken breast to fill these quick-and-simple burritos that are as light as they are flavorful. Packed with yummy spices, black beans and fresh veggies, they’re healthier than getting the super sized burrito down from the joint down the street and come together just as quickly.  Continue reading “Stuffed Chicken Burritos [RECIPE]”
