Mexican Chicken that can be made in 10 minutes flat. This easy chicken recipe can be used in salads, tacos, burritos, and enchiladas.
MEXICAN CHICKEN
Here’s the truth. We’ve had Taco Tuesday every Tuesday since the Lego Movie came out in 2014. If we don’t have it there’s a mutiny.
I can count on one hand how many times we’ve missed it. Not only do we have it every Tuesday, they want the simplest ground beef tacos. I try to squeeze in other Mexican dishes every once in a while to mix it up but they like it pretty basic.
So when my husband makes this chicken it’s a breath of fresh air. You can use it in everything!
