CHICKEN FAJITA TORTILLA CUPS

If you like to impress when you cook, these are the appetizers for you. Perfect finger food for a small gathering, a work potluck or my favorite, a Cinco de Mayo party. These require a little bit of work to prepare, but are fun, festive and worth it. Garnish with sour cream if desired. I have served just as an appetizer with chips and salsa or along with my sour cream chicken enchiladas. Good with beer and/or margaritas.

Time 1h

Yield 24

Number Of Ingredients 10

6 (10 inch) flour tortillas
ΒΌ cup garlic-flavored oil, or as needed
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 tablespoon finely chopped white onion
2 (6 ounce) packages grilled chicken strips, chopped
2 tablespoons fajita seasoning
1 large avocado, finely chopped
3 small Roma tomatoes, seeded and diced
2 tablespoons lemon juice
5 cloves garlic, minced, or to taste

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
  • Cut each tortilla into a 6-inch square using a pizza cutter. Cut each 6-inch square into four 3-inch squares, making 24 total. Use kitchen scissors to cut a 1-inch slit from each corner.
  • Brush garlic oil over both sides of the tortilla squares. Press squares into a mini muffin tin to create small, pointed tortilla cups.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until golden brown, 8 to 10 minutes.
  • Heat 2 tablespoons olive oil in a pan over medium-high heat. Saute onion until tender, 3 to 5 minutes. Add chicken and fajita seasoning; stir until blended. Remove from heat and let cool for about 20 minutes.
  • Combine avocado and tomatoes in a mixing bowl. Add lemon juice and garlic; stir to blend. Add the cooled chicken mixture and stir again until blended.
  • Spoon mixture into the tortilla cups. Serve immediately while tortilla cups are still crispy, or refrigerate for the next day.

CHICKEN TORTILLA CUPS

Categories     main-dish

Time 40m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 16

Cooking spray
4 large (10-inch) flour tortillas
3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
1/2 teaspoon chili powder
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
1 pound skinless, boneless chicken breasts, diced
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1/2 small onion, diced
2 stalks celery, diced
2 carrots, diced
1 red bell pepper, diced
1 14.5-ounce can diced fire-roasted tomatoes
1 cup low-sodium chicken broth
1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro
1 cup shredded monterey jack or pepper jack cheese

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F and coat 4 cups of a muffin pan with cooking spray. Fold each tortilla in half, then form into a cone, overlapping the sides. Fold up the point of the cone slightly, then press the tortilla into the prepared muffin pan to form a cup shape; coat with cooking spray. Transfer to the oven and bake until golden and crisp, about 15 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, combine the flour, cumin, chili powder, 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper in a large bowl. Add the chicken and toss to coat.
  • Heat the olive oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken in a single layer and cook, stirring occasionally, until lightly browned, about 2 minutes. Add the onion, celery, carrots and bell pepper and cook until the vegetables begin softening, about 2 minutes. Add the tomatoes and chicken broth to the skillet and bring to a simmer. Cook until the vegetables are tender and the sauce thickens slightly, about 5 minutes. Stir in the cilantro and season with salt and pepper.
  • Divide the chicken mixture among the tortilla cups. Top with the cheese.
