Cheese Recipe 31: Chicken and Cheese Soft Tacos

This recipe will make about ten servings.


Ingredients:

4 chicken breast fillets


2 tablespoons butter


½ teaspoon salt


½ teaspoon ground cumin


1 eight ounce tomato sauce


10 medium flour tortillas


2 cups shredded lettuce


1 large tomato diced and seeds removed


½ cup sour cream


Salt and pepper to taste


½ teaspoon garlic salt


½ cup shredded extra sharp cheddar cheese

Method:

In a large skillet over medium to high heat, place the butter. Cut the chicken into ½ inch fine strips, removing any extra fat. When it is half melted, add the chicken and cook until no longer pink, about 8 minutes. Now add the tomato sauce, garlic salt, salt and pepper, and cumin. Reduce heat and simmer covered for about 15-20 minutes. Warm tortillas up in an oven on low heat, or a microwave with a damp paper towel. Roll up burrito style and serve with lettuce, tomatoes, sour cream and shredded cheese.

Alternative Cheeses:

Colby Jack, Jalapeno Cheddar Cheese, or Muenster
