Ingredients
- 8 corn tortillas
- coconut oil for frying
- 3/4 lb chicken organic cutlets, thinly sliced
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
- 1/2 teaspoon ground chili powder
- 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup diced zucchini
- 1/2 cup sliced spring onions
- 1/2 cup corn kernels from the cob
- 6 tablespoons your favorite green salsa
- 1/2 cup diced tomato
- 2 tablespoons minced fresh cilantro
- 1/2 cup shredded jack cheese
Instructions
- Heat enough oil in a heavy bottomed sauce pan that you can fry tortillas in (1/2-inch if suffice). Fry tortillas about 1 minute per side until just starting to brown. Remove from pan and transfer to a paper towel lined plate to drain.
- Meanwhile, mix chicken, olive oil, cumin, chili powder, oregano and salt in a large bowl. Mix to coat the chicken.
- When done frying tortillas, drain all the coconut oil off and put pan back on stove top over medium heat. Add chicken and cook 3-5 minutes. Add zucchini, onions, and corn. Cook -3 minutes more. Add green salsa, turn heat to high and cook 1-2 minutes until most of the salsa has reduced. Add tomatoes and cilantro, stir and turn off the heat.
- Add 1 tablespoon of shredded jack cheese to each corn tortilla and put under broiler for 1-2 minutes until cheese is melted. Top each tortilla with 1/8 of the chicken and vegetable mixture. Add additional cilantro and serve with a wedge of lime.
