Forget going out to a a fancy Mexican resteraunt, these are killer and really easy. If you are intimidated to make Mexican food, don't be, this is a great one to try! Funny little story to go along with this recipe. Every time Chris's aunt comes to town, she begs Chris's mom to make these, and because she only gets a chance to eat these when she comes to town, she consumes like 12 of these babies, they are that good!!
1 garlic clove
1/2 tsp. salt
1 Tbsp. oil, vegetable or canola
3 1/2-4 cups shredded chicken (I just boil 4 chicken breasts, and then run them through my food processor, so easy!(
12-15 corn tortillas (I just buy a big bag of corn tortillas-I will tell you what to do with them below)
Pinch of pepper
1/2 tsp. ground cumin
1 onion, chopped
2 (10 oz.) cans Rotel tomatoes (I drain one of the cans, and not the other)
grated cheese
shredded lettuce
Sour Cream

Mash garlic with salt to make a paste. Heat oil in a large skillet. Add onion and garlic paste. Cook unitl onion is tender. Add tomatoes, pepper and cumin. Stir in chicken. Cook uncovered, sitrring occasionally until liquid is obsorbed into meat. Taste and add more salt and cumin if needed.
For corn shells, get a skillet (or I use fajita skillet), and place a corn tortilla on it, cook 20 seconds on each side...this will make the corn shells sorft. Once cooked place in between 2 paper towels to keep warm and soft. Enjoy!!!
