Ingredients

Directions

  1. Boil chicken til cooked. Then shred apart.
  2. Put into a frying pan. Add some chorizo (you can find this by the sausage and bacon in the deli usually). I like a lot (a lot equals spicy) of chorizo; it should make the chicken look dark orangish.
  3. After you're done with that, get another frying pan hot with oil.
  4. Put chicken into a flour or corn tortilla and close with a toothpick and fry. Be careful: if chicken gets out of the tortilla the grease starts popping like crazy.
  5. Once you're done frying, add your toppings. We add salsa and Mexican rice, cheese, lettuce, onion, sour cream etc. etc.
  6. Tip: Great with chicken or turkey. Also, instead of chicken use with your leftover turkey. Tastes great!
