We've started a tradition in our apartment where we have a community dinner (with some of the boys downstairs) every Sunday.
This Sunday, we made Navajo Tacos. Yum!! Sadly, I didn't document the whole thing, but basically, you make big scones, and pile on whatever taco stuff you want.
For our meat, I made some really
yummy shredded chicken, totally from scratch.
Here's how:
Boil 4-5 chicken breasts (just on the stove in water), until thoroughly cooked.
While they're boiling, prepare the seasoning.
3 tsp. chili powder
2 1/2 tsp. paprika
2 1/4 tsp. cumin
1 1/4 tsp. onion powder
1/4 tsp. garlic powder
Dash cayenned pepper (I didn't have any cayenned pepper, so I used some Red Pepper that was in our spice rack. )
(I also added some pepper from a pepper grinder that I have.)
Once the chicken breasts are fully cooked, pull them out and either shred or cube them, then put the chicken in a skillet on medium heat. Add about 1/4 cup of water, and your homemade seasoning, stir together. Let it fry for a few minutes, until the water in the bottom is gone.
Put on tacos, add whatever other toppings you'd like, and serve!
Makes about 10 servings.
*Note- The batch I made used about 3-1/2 chicken breasts, and I had a little extra seasoning.
Enjoy!
