Tast Tuesday: Lime Chicken Soft Tacos

This is one of my favorite recipes that I've found at Allrecipes.com. It's easy and yummy!

Ingredients:
1 1/2 pounds skinless, boneless chicken breast meat - cubed
1/8 cup red wine vinegar
1/2 lime, juiced
1 teaspoon white sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
2 green onions, chopped (I usually omit these and use onion powder or salt.)
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 teaspoon dried oregano
10 (6 inch) flour tortillas
1 tomato, diced
shredded lettuce
shredded Monterrey Jack cheese
salsa


DIRECTIONS
Saute chicken in a medium saucepan over medium high heat for about 20 minutes. Add vinegar, lime juice, sugar, salt, pepper, green onion, garlic and oregano. Simmer for an extra 10 minutes.
Heat an iron skillet over medium heat. Place a tortilla in the pan, warm, and turn over to heat the other side. Repeat with remaining tortillas. Serve lime chicken mixture in warm tortillas topped with tomato, lettuce, cheese and salsa.

I don't heat the tortillas in a skillet. I heat them the normal way. ;) Enjoy!
