Chicken Tacos

Chicken Tacos

Cooking fat

2-3 lbs chicken meat, diced fairly small

Taco Seasoning

1 tomato, chopped

1/2 red onion, finely chopped

1/2 c cilantro, chopped

Coconut flour tortillas (as follows) or lettuce wraps

Brown chicken pieces in the cooking fat. Add taco seasoning and either prepare according to the package or, if using the homemade seasoning, add the seasoning and about 1/2-1 c water. Let simmer until the chicken is cooked through and the seasoning/water mixture has thickened. Serve in coconut tortillas topped with the tomato, red onion, and cilantro. Feel free to add whatever you love on tacos.

Slight variation: You could make a salad out of it by chopping up some lettuce and using guacamole/salsa as the dressing.

Coconut Flour Tortillas

1/4 c coconut flour

8 large eggs whites

1/4 tsp baking powder

1/2 c water

Cooking fat (I suggest coconut oil)

Whish all ingredients together in a bowl, making sure no lumps remain. If you want thinner tortillas add 1-2 tsp more water. Preheat a small nonstick skillet over medium heat. Place about 1 tsp cooking fat in the pan. Swirl around to coat. Pour about 3 tblsp of the batter into the pan, tipping the pan from side to side while you pour the batter (to get a very thing tortilla). Do not attempt to flip the tortilla until you are sure the first side is golden brown. Otherwise, the tortilla will rip. Once golden brown, flip over and brown on opposite side. Remove to plate and repeat process. There should be about 8-10 medium-sized tortillas.

You can do these a day or two ahead and store in a ziplock bag. Just reheat when they are needed. Also, feel free to play around with them a bit. Add different spices for more flavor.
