I'm not really a fan of Mexican food. I'm a picky eater, and I don't like peppers, hot spices, cheese, or overwhelming tomato. But there are things I don't hate, and I was willing to try a recipe in one of the old cookbooks my parents had before I started my life in the kitchen.
The first time we tried to make these, we tried to alter the recipe and left out the cheese and onions. The end result tasted like it was just chicken, ketchup, and garlic. So, since my dad cooks the meat around here, he came up with this. It has onion powder instead of onions, and the seasoning gives it a little more flavor without being overwhelmingly spicy.
RECIPE:
- Cooking oil
- 2 medium chicken breasts
- 1 8-ounce can tomato sauce
- 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/4 teaspoon onion powder
- 1/2 packet taco seasoning
- 1 pack small tortillas
Cut the chicken into bite-size pieces.
Cook chicken in oil until done.
Mix tomato sauce, garlic powder, onion powder, and taco seasoning in a bowl.
Add tomato mix to chicken skillet.
Reduce heat and simmer.
Wrap chicken, sour cream, and any other burrito ingredients you want in the tortillas.
We did have a few parts that got more taco seasoning than others, but most of it just left little tingles in the mouth. Maybe I should have mixed the sauce in a bigger bowl. Either way, it's good food.
