Ingredients

  • 1 chicken breast (cut into thin slices)
  • 10 large broccoli florets
  • Cheese of any variety you like (shredded or sauce)
  • Home made tortillas
  • Yellow mustard (optional) I added it to my cheese sauce for a little tang.

Directions

  1. Make tortilla dough, following what ever recipe you are comfortable with, and roll, press and/or cut to desired size.
  2. Pan sear the chicken piece.
  3. Once chicken is fully cooked. Add taco seasoning of choice to taste and a small amount (I didn’t measure the amount but I would say around 3 tablespoons) of chicken stock or water to the pan. Note adding the liquid helps to coat the chicken better with the taco seasoning.
  4. In the same pan add about a tablespoon of butter and let it melt. Don’t clean the pan between cooking the chicken and broccoli so that the broccoli can get some of the flavor from the taco seasoning. Once butter is melted sauté the broccoli. Note I use frozen broccoli and let it thaw out in the pan when it is cooking to retain it’s color and flavor.
  5. Once broccoli is cooked remove it from the pan to a cutting board and let cool enough to handle. Cut into slices.
  6. Then assemble. Lay down your tortilla, cover with cheese, add broccoli slices, then the chicken.
