2.) In separate bowl. Combine the tomato sauce, taco seasoning mix and drained, rinsed black beans. Set aside.

Feeling the MOMENT!

-After our dinner, the fight begun and it was like a roller coaster of emotions. At least for me, I was so nervous the whole time. We were screaming and cheering the whole time and before we knew it..its OVER!

 The pay per view was so expensive and I felt like its not worthed for 30 minutes running around, threw few punches here and there, and hugs galore. The excitement lasted only for few minutes, until I realized that they're doing same thing over and over again run, punch and hugs.

 Super Easy Chicken Barbecue Recipe

Hello Everyone!

I really intend to chopped the chicken little smaller to copy that Filipino chicken barbecue that I used to and its really good.

Talking about marinade, its really simple and easy- Just mix all the ingredients listed below, marinate the chicken overnight and whoala!! Delectable dinner is waiting for you and your family. This Chicken barbecue is also perfect food for any occasion, couldn't be more perfect for summer grilling season. I'll surely grill more chicken barbecue's very soon!

1/2 cup ketchup

1 lemon

1 onion- finely chopped

2 clove garlic- finely chopped

1/4 cup sprite or 2 teaspoon sugar (optional)

salt and pepper- to taste

Bamboo skewers

Barbecue Sauce: I mix half ketchup into 1/4 soy sauce and mix them well. You can also used your favorite barbecue sauce if you want. Enjoy!

 Directions:

1.) Prepare all the ingredients by chopping the onion, garlic and the chicken. 

2.) In large container just combine the soy sauce, ketchup, lemon juice , salt and pepper. The sprite is optional but it add flavor to the dish I highly recommend to add it to the mixture but if you don't feel comfortable with sprite, a little sugar will do.:)

3.) Combine the chicken,onion, garlic and the marinade sauce. Let it set for couple hours before grilling. I do mine overnight..:)

4.) Turn on the Griddler or Grill. Meantime, skew the chicken into the bamboo skewers until everything is done.

5.) Start grilling the chicken barbeque. Brush little marinade if you have to. It would take couple minutes on each side and.. DONE!

6.) Enjoy the chicken barbeque with your family and friends..:)
