    Recipe Introduction


    Posted by: AlabamaNeeNee**********From Country

    This recipe came from Texas, which is famous for its Mexican food. I love to cook, even though it's just for me and my husband now. I invite our grown kids over a lot, and they just love this recipe. I'm happy to share it!

    List of Ingredients




    2 tablespoons vegetable oil, divided
    1/4 cup lime juice
    1 garlic clove, minced
    1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
    1/2 teaspoon oregano
    1 pound boneless skinless chicken breasts, cut into thin strips
    1 onion, cut into thin wedges
    1 sweet red pepper, cut into thin strips
    1 can (7 ounces) chopped green chilies, drained
    1 cup whole almonds, toasted
    Shredded lettuce
    3 tomatoes, cut into wedges
    1 avocado, sliced

    Recipe



    Combine 1 tablespoon oil, lime juice, garlic, cumin and oregano. Toss with chicken; marinate at least 30 minutes. Meanwhile, in a skillet, heat remaining oil on medium-high. Saute onion 2 minutes. Drain chicken, reserving marinade. Add chicken to skillet; stir-fry until it begins to brown. Add red pepper, chilies and marinade; cook 2 minutes. Stir in almonds. Serve immediately over shredded lettuce and top with tomatoes and avocado. Yield: 4-6 servings.
