Chicken Tacos

This was a complete last minute thing, because we argued about what to make for dinner. Then we had dinner at 10:30 pm! ugh. But they were delicious, so I couldn't complain. Here is my recipe I put together.

You will need: 
Tortillas
Chicken ( I used boneless skinless chicken breasts)
Italian salad dressing
garlic powder
chili powder
red pepper flakes
Cheese (Taco blend) 
Sour cream
Lettuce
Hot sauce! 



For my chicken, I just cut it up into bite size pieces, we used 4 chicken breasts for the two of us and had some left over.  I cook it on the stove in a frying pan with the Italian salad dressing, I used almost a whole bottle, but I suggest using half, because you will have a lot of sauce still left in the pan. I have cooked chicken like this since I was 16. haha its amazing! Even tho it is not a flavor you would normally put with tacos.. that is why I add the garlic powder, chili powder, and red pepper flakes! So add those to your liking and cook until done! 

Now the next part I tried I found here.  Our recipes were quite similar, but I wanted to use her technique of making the tortillas into actual taco shells.. if you get what I mean. Well 3 mangled tacos later, and some oil burns I decided to just do it my own way.. I just put them in the pan of hot oil for a little on each side, and then folded it over to make the crease, but not long enough so it was too hard to add all the ingredients. Turned out a-ok! 

I really hate that I write full paragraphs to describe how I cook something. Sorry for rambling. 

I may, or may not have had 4 of these. yum.
