• Servings: 4
• 2 large boneless skinless chicken breasts, sliced in half

• 1 teaspoon fresh rosemary, chopped
• 1 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped
• 1 1/4 teaspoons chili powder

• 1 cup lettuce, shredded
• 1 cup sour cream
• 1 cup refried beans
• 6 corn tortillas

Recipe

• 1 preheat oven to 350 degrees.
• 2 mix the thyme, parsley, rosemary, chili powder and salt and pepper with 3 tbs. of the oil. spoon or rub this mixture onto the thin pieces of chicken.
• 3 brown the chicken on both sides (about 2-3 minutes per side on medium-high heat) in a skillet with the remaining oil. transfer to the oven, so that the insides can cook through. (about 15 minutes.).
• 4 once the chicken has cooked, slice it, and i like to get it extra crispy by browning the sliced chicken pieces again in the same skillet that you cooked the chicken in before. just make sure that the chicken doesn't dry out.
• 5 i made my own salsa by mixing 1/4 cup minced onion, 2 chopped tomatoes, some parsley, lime juice, olive oil, chili powder and cumin. but if you want, just use store bought and maybe add a dash each of chili powder and cumin to give it a homemade taste.
• 6 take the corn tortillas, wrap then in a paper towel and put them in the microwave for 30 seconds just to soften them up.
• 7 place everything; the tortillas, chicken pieces, lettuce, cheese, lime wedges, sour cream, salsa and refried beans in separate bowls so that dinner guests can help themselves to whatever they like.
• 8 build your own perfect taco and enjoy!
