By Ana Lyons
One Sunday afternoon in the sleepy village of Matapalo, while enjoying a visit with my friends Susanna and Jean-Louis Mari, owners of Express del Pacifico Restaurante, a “new face in town” entered to have a cold beverage and some conversation. After exchanging pleasantries, we found out that Edgar Vargas is the new executive chef at Parador Hotel’s restaurants in Manuel Antonio – enjoying his day off in our little slice of paradise.
This recipe is very versatile. Add your favorite ingredients such as fresh basil, sun dried tomato, diced tomato, onion or pepper. Or use shrimp instead of chicken. Easily double or triple and have friends over for dinner. Enjoy!
