CHICKEN AND BEAN SOFT TACOS
Just what this site needs - another chicken taco recipe! Here's my variation on the theme - like most recipes, it's really easy to adjust to suit your family's tastes. Cooking time is very flexible as well, sometimes I get it started and let it simmer a bit to blend the flavors, adding liquid as needed to keep it from drying out. Other times, I just throw it all together and serve it within 15 minutes.

Steps:
- saute onion in large pan till translucent. Add garlic and chopped jalapeno, saute briefly, stirring.
- (Sometimes if I don't have cooked chicken on hand, I cut raw chicken in strips and saute it along with the onions.).
- Add chicken, seasonings and remaining ingredients (except tortillas and toppings).
- Cook over medium high heat, till ingredients are combined and liquid cooks down - about 5-10 minutes.
- This timing of the cooking is flexible, depending on how much seasoning you add, how much liquid is in your beans, if you add tomato sauce, etc. I make it spicy and just wet enough that it's not dried out, but not watery or gloppy.
- Adjust seasonings, salt to taste. (For me, it's often at this point when I decide if I want to add the taste of tomato sauce.).
- Serve in flour tortillas with your favorite toppings.
