Taco Pollo - Spicy Chicken Filled Tortillas image

For a Mexican-style dinner, serve these as a starter with creamy avocado or sour cream dip, followed by your favourite hot and spicy Mexican dish. Or serve them with a Mexican vegetable side dish such as Mexican Potato Crisps With Lime Salsa Recipe #139461, Fried Mexican Capsicum & Potatoes Recipe #139465 or Mexican Bean Hotpot Recipe #139476. I've posted this recipe for the 2005 Zaar World Tour from a recipe on an International Masters 'recipes for pan or wok' recipe card.

Number Of Ingredients 11

3 chicken breast fillets
4 garlic cloves
1 red onion
2 tomatoes
1 green capsicum
2 tablespoons olive oil
1/4 teaspoon chili powder
8 ready-made flour tortillas
50 g cheddar cheese or 50 g monterey jack cheese
1 sprig flat leaf parsley, to garnish

Steps:

  • Cut the chicken into thin strips, peel and crush the garlic, peel and slice the onion, de-seed and roughly chop the tomatoes and deseed and slice the capsicum into strips.

This recipe needs some serious improvement. The chicken was bland and the tortillas were too thick and chewy.

I'm not sure what went wrong, but this recipe was a complete failure. The chicken was burnt and the tortillas were inedible.

This recipe was a waste of time and ingredients. The chicken was rubbery and the tortillas were tasteless.

I would not recommend this recipe. The chicken was tough and the tortillas were undercooked.

I followed the recipe exactly and the results were disappointing. The chicken was dry and the tortillas were soggy.

I tried this recipe and it was just okay. The chicken was a bit bland and the tortillas were a bit tough.
