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.

Chicken Tacos image

Steps:

  • Rub the marinade all over the chicken pieces. Place in a bowl, cover and refrigerate at least 1 hour or as long as overnight. Preheat the oven to 350/. Lift the chicken pieces from the marinade and transfer to a roasting pan. Roast for about 40 minutes, or until the meat easily pulls away from the bone. Set the chicken aside to cool and pour the cooking juices from the pan into a bowl or cup.
  • Refrigerate the juices so that the fat rises to the top. When the chicken is cool, remove and discard the skin, if desired, and bones and cut or shred the meat into bitesized pieces. Refrigerate the chicken if you do not plan to use it right away. When you are ready to make the tacos, skim off and discard the fat which has risen from the cooking juices, and use the brown cooking liquid which remains to reheat the chicken in a low oven.
  • Dip a corn tortilla in some water and shake off the excess. Toast one at a time in a nonstick pan over medium heat for about 1 minute on each side. Wrap in a towel to keep warm while you dip and heat the remaining tortillas.
  • For each taco, stack 2 tortillas. Divide the warm chicken and place on top. Top with Salsa Fresca, sliced avocado, and chopped cilantro.
  • Combine 1/3 cup of the orange juice, the achiote paste, jalapenos, garlic, peppercorns and salt in a blender or food processor. Puree until the peppercorns are completely crushed. Add the cilantro and the remaining 1/3 cup orange juice and puree until smooth.
  • In large bowl combine all ingredients and stir until smooth. The dough should be slightly sticky and form a ball when pressed together. To test, flatten a small piece of dough between your palms. If the edges crack, add water to the dough, a tablespoon at a time, until a test piece does not crack.
  • Divide the dough into 24 golf ball size pieces for tacos and 12 large balls for quesadillas. Place on a platter and cover with a damp towel. Line a tortilla press with 2 sheets of plastic cut from a plastic freezer bag or other heavy duty plastic bag.
  • Heat a dry cast iron skillet, or non-stick pan until moderately hot. Flatten each ball of dough in the tortilla press, then remove the plastic from the top and, holding the tortilla with your fingertips, peel off the bottom sheet. Lay the tortillas one by one on the skillet and cook about 30 to 45 seconds per side, pressing the top of each tortilla with your fingertips to make it puff. Place the hot tortillas on a towel.
  • When they are still warm but not hot, stack and wrap in a towel. Serve immediately or let cool, wrap well in plastic or a plastic bag and store in the refrigerator up to a week.
  • In a mixing bowl combine all the ingredients. Stir and toss well. Store in a covered container in the refrigerator no more than 1 day.

1 1/2 pounds chicken legs and thighs

CHICKEN WONTON TACOS

Light and tasty, these make a great appetizer or a quick and easy main dish! Kids love them! Finally a dish that makes use of ground chicken but not so far-fetched. I bake the wonton wrappers to save time and it eliminates most of the fat. Although time-consuming, you can fry wrappers in sesame or olive oil for the extra flaky shells, folded in a triangle for about 1 minute on each side. I loved the ones at Applebee's® and decided to attempt a home version. I was extremely pleased with the healthier version! Top tacos with cilantro, red onion, or sweet onion, if desired. Serve lime wedges on the side.
