Simple and Easy Chicken Tacos Recipe


The Ramadan fasting is going to end, but the list of snacks which I want to try is never going to end. One among them are Tacos. This is a very simple chicken taco recipe which is perfect for a get together, or on a game night. This is very filling and a delicious meal, which will be enjoyed by all.
I am really amazed and surprised that I made the chicken tacos at home, which I never thought I would do. These chicken tacos are so easy to make and are so simple that it would take less than 30 minutes. I bought the ready made tacos but we can also make them from scratch, that I will try some other time. The chicken filling and the salsa in the tacos will be an ultimate combination. We can top it with different variety of sauces, we can also top it with guacamole and load it with chopped lettuce, sour cream and cheese. We can customize the tacos according to our taste and desire.



Traditional street tacos are served on corn tortillas, topped with onions, tomatoes, cilantro and a squeeze of lemon. Now there are many different fillings and toppings, which will keep you coming back for more. Last but not the least, enjoy your tacos with a squeeze of lime. Hope you all will like this and try this out. Please let me know how this turned.

Crispy braised Iberico pork collar Recipe

Image
It is not cheap, but if you come across it don't hesitate and buy an   Iberico  pork  collar  (aka boneless neck, Cabecero). Mine was 1800 g. It is a well marbled, exquisitely flavorful cut that can be roasted, braised, or sliced into steaks for quick searing. ... While  iberico  is best known for the famous slow-aged hams, the other cuts are succulent, moist & delicious. I made pulled pork from one half. Today I made this from the other half. First I peeled, halved and then sliced 800 g of onions and sweated them in 40 g of butter, turned the heat up a bit and softly fried them for about 40 mins, nicely caramelised and brown. Took out the onions and added some more butter in the pan to sear the meat. Then turned the heat down again and added  sea salt, black pepper, 3 tbsp  Worcestershire  and 6 finely hacked cloves of garlic , 1.2 liter of beef stock , the reserved onions and 2 leaves of laurel . Put the lid on and let it simmer for 3 hours. Then I took out the oni
