Great addition to practically any Latin American dish- from taquitos to taco salad! You can also use cilantro here, though I prefer parsley. Ingredients:
1 lb chicken breast |
1 medium yellow onion |
2 sliced serranos or 2 jalapenos |
1 tablespoon olive oil |
2 diced garlic cloves |
diced fresh parsley leaves (i use these instead of cilantro) |
Directions:
1. Boil chicken breast, 1/2 of the onion sliced, and chiles until chicken is cooked through.
2. Shred the chicken into bite size or smaller pieces.
3. Fry in a skillet the other half of the onion, diced, the garlic, and the parsley leaves for 2-3 minutes, or until onions are soft.
4. (I also like to add the boiled chile here to add a little kick.)
5. Serve as meat for empanadas, taquitos, burritos, atop a taco salad, or use your imagination!
