Celebrate Cinco de Mayo with Chicken Tacos!!!


Ingredients:

2 boneless chicken breasts

1 packet of Casa Mexicana chipotle chicken taco seasoning

1 can of diced tomatoes

1 red pepper

1 green pepper

1 box of mexican rice

salsa

salt and pepper

lettuce

shredded cheese

Cholulala Hot Sauce


Instructions:


First, start cooking your favorite mexican rice. Most usually take about 30 minutes to fully cook, while the rest of this process is very fast.






After getting the rice going, I make sure to chop up everything I'm going to need to use. Starting with the chicken, which should be chopped into small strips. If your chicken breast is large, you should be sure to cut the strips in half.





Then chop up both the red and green peppers into strips. Also, chop up the lettuce that will be used as a garnish later.






Start cooking the chicken in a medium skillett, for about five minutes or until you can see no more pink. Add half the packet of the seasoning to the chicken as it cooks. Add half a can of the diced tomatoes, with part of the juice. Then, add in both the red and green peppers. Let these simmer until the veggies are steamed and the chicken is cooked all the way through. Then place on the warm setting.






While the chicken is cooking, I like to get my garnishes ready and in serving dishes. Serve with chopped letuce, shredded cheese, salsa and hot sauce.








Once your garnishes are prepaired, heat the number of tortillas you think you will need. With my recipe, I used 5.






After everything is ready, feel free to dish up. I like to put some mexican rice down first and pile everything else on top!






Then garnish however you like, and eat up! Enjoy, and be warned that these tacos are extra fillling!!





Happy Cinco de Mayo!!!!
Hope you all enjoy with a margarita or my favorite mexican beer, Pacifico or Corona!
