Flavorful Chicken for Empanadas, Tacos, Etc... image

Great addition to practically any Latin American dish- from taquitos to taco salad! You can also use cilantro here, though I prefer parsley.

Time 30m

Yield 2-4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 lb chicken breast
1 medium yellow onion
2 sliced serranos or 2 jalapenos
1 tablespoon olive oil
2 diced garlic cloves
diced fresh parsley leaves (I use these instead of cilantro)

Steps:

  • Boil chicken breast, 1/2 of the onion sliced, and chiles until chicken is cooked through.
  • Shred the chicken into bite size or smaller pieces.
  • Fry in a skillet the other half of the onion, diced, the garlic, and the parsley leaves for 2-3 minutes, or until onions are soft.
  • (I also like to add the boiled chile here to add a little kick.)
  • Serve as meat for empanadas, taquitos, burritos, atop a taco salad, or use your imagination!
