So yesterday in chat we somehow got on the topic of mixing chinese and mexican food. There's the obvious grilled teriyaki steak in fajitas idea, but that would be japanese and mexican. So today we were trying to come up with some feasible chinese/mexican 'fusion' dishes. Any ideas?

<Hito> Oh, hell, I've got so many ideas right now.
<Hito> That spring roll idea could be very easy to pull off.
<Drex> very true
<Hito> Wonton wrapper, one slice of a green chile, a carrot slice, perhaps a black bean paste, and cabbage.
<Hito> With a soy-chile sauce?
<Drex> yes
<Drex> although having some alternative sauces
<Drex> a mustard sauce
<Drex> and some sort of sweet sauce, possibly incorporating something mexican with sweet and sour or duck sauce

<Drex> I think sesame chicken would work in some sort of fajita-type thing, but I don't know that it would work well with cheese, so that might have to be left out, if tried
<Hito> At the very least, grilled onions would work.
<Hito> Black beans, too.
<Drex> yes
<Drex> and grilled green peppers with the onions
<Drex> though not too many, for overpowering taste

This is obviously still a work in progress.
My aunt makes chicken and broccoli over ziti noodles, which is pretty good, too. Any other good fusion ideas? that aren't stupid?
Jam it back in, in the dark.
