This is a recipe from Rachel Ray's 30 minute meals.
1 TB EVOO
1 1/2 lb boneless chicken breasts, cut into cubes
1 small onion, chopped
1 garlic clove, minced
1 c. tomato puree
2 tsp chili powder
1 tsp ground cumin
a handful coarsely chopped spanish olives
a handful golden raisins, optional
coarse salt, to taste
8 jumbo corn taco shells or 8 flour tortillas
Toppings: shredded cheese (smoked cheddar, MJ or pepper jack), diced avocados, diced tomatoes, chopped scallions, shredded lettuce
Heat a big skillet over medium heat; add EVOO and brown chicken. Add onion and garlic and cook another couple of minutes to soften the onion. Dump in tomato puree, chili powder, cumin, olives, raisins and salt. Bring to a bubble, reduce heat to low and simmer until ready to serve. Warm taco shells or flour tortillas in oven according to package directions. Scoop filling into shells and top at table. Serve with chunked vegetables or green salad. Makes 5 servings.
Family Recipe Collection
What's This About?
Food is such a wonderful thing! Not only does it sustain us, but it enriches our lives. How many times have you tasted a dish and it takes you back to another time and place-- one filled with cherished memories? How many times have you tried to recreate those memorable dishes to find that you can't remember all the ingredients or how they are suppose to intermingle?
This is a food project for my family. My intention is to shorten the distance between us all and share in making memories together. I want us all to add tried and true recipes from past and present generations. Please feel free to add any stories or thoughts to these recipes, too.
When this project is near completion, I hope to have a marvelous collection of recipes that bring us closer together as a family. We'll have an heirloom cookbook of recipes and stories we can pass onto future generations.
