EASY TEX-MEX CHICKEN TACOS

Steps:

• Bring water to a boil in a saucepan; add rice and 1/4 cup olive oil. Bring liquid back to a boil, reduce heat to medium-low, cover saucepan, and simmer until rice is tender, 20 to 25 minutes.
• Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a skillet over medium heat; cook and stir chicken and taco seasoning mix until chicken is no longer pink in the center, 5 to 10 minutes. Mix rice, black beans, Mexican cheese blend, olives, and jalapeno pepper into chicken; cook and stir until heated through, about 5 minutes.
• Heat a separate skillet over medium-high heat; warm tortillas in skillet until pliable, 1 to 2 minutes per tortilla.
• Fill each tortilla with about 1/2 cup chicken-rice mixture, folding tortilla over filling.
• Heat bacon grease in a skillet over medium heat; fry the filled tortillas until crispy, 2 to 3 minutes per side.

SHELIA'S TEX-MEX CHICKEN TACO'S

Steps:

• To soft fry tortillas: heat oil on medium high, insert one corn tortilla in hot oil, count to 3 and turn to other side. Count to 3 and remove to a plate with paper towels. Continue until all tortillas have been soft fried. Lay each tortilla on clean paper towel and blot with another to remove most of the oil.
• Put the shredded chicken along with the broth, cumin, and garlic powder, salt and pepper, into saucepan and stir until liquid is diminished, approximately 5 minutes.
• Lay tortilla in plate and spoon a tablespoon or two of chicken into center and roll up the tortilla. Lay salad ingredients on top. Add condiments to the top of the salad ingredients and serve. NOTE: In separate bowls, serve these condiments to choose from, refried beans, grated cheese, salsa, Jalapeno peppers, hot sauce, and sour cream.
