Cooking instruction summary:

1Prepare the ingredients:Wash and dry the fresh produce. In a medium pot, combine the coconut milk (shaking the can before opening), a big pinch of salt and 1 cups of water; heat to boiling on high. Using a peeler, remove the green rind of the lime, avoiding the white pith; mince the rind to get 2 teaspoons of zest (or use a zester). Quarter the lime. Peel and mince the garlic. Remove and discard the collard green stems; thinly slice the leaves. Pick the cilantro leaves off the stems; discard the stems. Pat the chicken dry with paper towels and chop into bite-sized pieces; place in a bowl. Season the chopped chicken with salt, pepper and the spice blend; toss to coat.2Make the coconut grits:Slowly add the grits to the pot of boiling coconut milk and water, whisking to break up any clumps. Reduce the heat to low and simmer, whisking occasionally, 10 to 12 minutes, or until thickened and tender. (If the grits seem too thick, gradually add up to cup of water to achieve your desired consistency.) Remove from heat. Add the lime zest and half the butter; whisk until thoroughly combined. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Cover and set aside in a warm place.3Toast the coconut flakes:While the coconut grits simmer, heat a medium, dry pan (nonstick, if you have one) on medium until hot. Add the coconut flakes and toast, stirring frequently, 3 to 5 minutes, or until golden brown. Transfer to a plate. Wipe out the pan.4Cook the collard greens:While the coconut grits continue to simmer, in the pan used to toast the coconut flakes, heat 2 teaspoons of olive oil on medium-high until hot. Add the garlic and collard greens; season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, 2 to 4 minutes, or until the garlic is fragrant and the collard greens have wilted. Transfer to a plate and set aside in a warm place. Wipe out the pan.5Cook the chicken:In the pan used to cook the collard greens, heat 2 teaspoons of olive oil on medium-high until hot. Add the seasoned chicken and cook, stirring occasionally, 5 to 7 minutes, or until browned and cooked through. Turn off the heat. Add the remaining butter, the juice of 2 lime wedges and 1 tablespoon of water; stir until thoroughly combined, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the pan. Season with salt and pepper to taste.6Plate your dish:Divide the coconut grits between 2 bowls. Top with the cooked collard greens and cooked chicken.

Food Trivia

Death row inmates in Texas don't get to pick their last meal.

Food Joke

Jack goes to the doctor and says "Doc I'm having trouble getting my penis erect, can you help me?" After a complete examination the doctor tells Jack, "Well the problem is that the muscles around the base of your penis are damaged. There's really nothing I can do for you unless you're willing to try an experimental treatment." Jack asks sadly, "And that would be?" "Well," the Doctor explains, "What we would do is take the muscles from the trunk of a baby elephant and implant them in your penis." Jack thinks about it silently then says, "Well the thought of going through life without ever having sex again is too much, let's go for it." Jack went under the knife, and, after a period of recovery and healing, returned to the Doc for his blessing. Following the examination, the Doc pronounced Jack "healed and ready for action". Eager to use his experimentally enhanced equipment, Jack planned a romantic evening for his girlfriend and took her to one of the nicest restaurants in town, anticipating a happy conclusion to the evening. In the middle of dinner he felt a stirring between his legs that continued to the point of being painful. To release the pressure, Jack placed his napkin on his lap and unzipped his fly. His penis immediately sprung from his pants, flipped the napkin on the floor, went to the top of the table, grabbed a bread roll and then returned to his pants! His girlfriend was stunned at first but then, imagining the possibilities, said with a sly smile and a gleam in her eye, "That was incredible! Can you do it again?" Jack groaned, "Probably, but I don't think I can fit another roll in my ass."
