    Recipe Introduction


    Posted by: lin_65

    List of Ingredients




    1 lb. chicken tenderloins, trimmed of tendon thingy
    Mexene Chili Powder
    Salt/Pepper
    1 medium onion, chopped
    8-10 large flour tortillas
    Cheese Dip (already made)
    Hot Sauce or Salsa, if desired

    Recipe



    Saute chicken pieces, liberally coated on both sides with Mexene.Salt and pepper when it's in the skillet.I use a well-seasoned iron skillet with no grease.Brown chicken on both sides.Remove, cool, and cut in bite-size bits.Lay a tortilla in clean skillet (iron), spread 1/2 tortilla with a couple heaping T. dip.(When my dip got cold it was very thick.)Place chicken pieces over dip, sprinkle with onion.Add hot sauce if using.Fold over tortilla top, cover skillet with lid (or loose foil), one side overlapped to let out all the steam.Brown on one side, turn over and brown.The fat in the cheese soaks through and makes the tortilla crunchy/crisp.

    This has made many meals for me this week.Sliced tomatoes or salad on the side is a perfect meal.Can be as hot flavored as you want.

    This makes a lot and it's been posted by many but I think originally from Maddymoo, not sure anymore...

    Mexican restaurant style White Queso Dip

    1 lb. white American cheese
    2 small cans diced green chili w/liquid
    1/2-1 cup whipping cream

    Simmer in pan until smooth, stirring often, over low heat.Add 1/2 cup cream to start.

    I've found white American cheese several places.It's the exact same as yellow, no food color added..
