GRINGO CHICKEN TACOS image

The owner of a cafe here in our little town made these, but were very spicy. My sister and I would ask her to make us some, not so hot, so she began calling them "Gringo Chicken Tacos". They were on her menu like this. She is gone now, but we love these tacos.

I didn't like these tacos at all. The chicken was dry and the flavors were bland.

The tacos were a little too spicy for my taste, but otherwise they were delicious.
