Pollo Asado Loco is a Work in Progress
Have you ever eaten at an El Pollo Loco? Good stuff, right? Ever since my first bite of their chicken, I have been searching for the real recipe. Believe you me, I’ve tried plenty and none has hit the mark. Guess what? Neither did this one.
Hot Salsa Chicken Burrito Wraps
Recently I mentioned our prior life – one with travel to far away places. Every now and again, when I think Mexican Foods I think of Cozumel. I remember walking through the streets of Cozumel with Hubby and Kiddo, taking in the sights and sounds and smells of this seaside town.
Fiesta Chicken-Chorizo Tacos
These yummy tacos were featured as part of last year’s Cinco de Mayo Feast. While great for the occasion, tacos this good are awesome any time. Can you tell, rather than have a day celebrating all that is Mexican through foods, I’d like to have an entire month dedicated to the exploration of Mexico’s culinary delights. Wouldn’t that be great?

A while back, I cooked up some Chorizo-Lime Street Tacos served with plenty of Refried Beans and Spanish Rice. We had a lot of filling left over, enough for another meal of tacos. The idea of tacos twice in the same week just didn’t appeal to me. I had planned to try a new recipe for Green Chili stuffed Chicken Breast. And that’s when the light came on! Why not add the leftover Chorizo? It’s been a while since I went winging it in the kitchen. When Kiddo came into the kitchen, he looked around and asked where the recipe was so he could help. I smiled, and said just follow my lead – we aren’t using a recipe tonight. How complicated can it be? Butterfly the chicken, brown, season and fill. Pop the breasts into the oven and bake.

Crock Pot Mexican Chicken Burritos
It’s that time of the year – time to break out the crock pot. Sure, this pot is great for hardy winter meals like a big pot of slow-cooked stew or awesome soups. It’s also great for shredded meats for tacos, burritos and even hot sandwiches.
Spicy Chicken and Rice Burritos – An Entire Meal Wrapped in a Flour Tortilla
Earlier in the week, I shared with you a big crock pot of delicious shredded chicken for my Slow Cooker Spicy Chicken Thigh Tacos. The tacos were awesome – with just the right amount of chicken to spice. The recipe made a giant pot of filling, more than we could possibly eat in one meal. Tonight I took that filling and created super quick, oh so delicious Chicken and Rice Burritos.

Slow Cooker Pollo en Salsa Picante Rojo
This recipe has been on my weekly planner for a while now. I kept postponing it because I kept forgetting to thaw out the darn chicken. Then it occurred to me – why thaw the chicken?
Mexican Style Chicken Lasagna
While I might not serve this “Lasagna” on Christmas Day, the garnish of green onions and chopped tomatoes do bring in that holiday colors. This recipe could easily be doubled for large gatherings, perfect for pot-luck parties.
Margarita Grilled Chicken with Spicy Stuffed Mushrooms
It’s time to say adiós a México, at least from a backyard grill’s perspective. Soon the weather will turn, the days shorter and the nights longer. Grilling season unofficially ends on Labor Day, although most of us continue to grill until the rains, winds and snow say otherwise. I wanted to go out with a bit of a bang, so I decided to try a recipe I picked up from the Slow Roasted Italian (theslowroasteditalian.com). Don’t let the name fool you – TSRI isn’t just about Italian foods. It’s all about home cooking, family values and a love for life. I’ve made a number of Donna’s recipes, and haven’t had one fail me yet.

Beautiful Baked Chicken Fajitas
A while back, I came across one of those one-sheet pan dinners. This one was for baked fajitas. We love fajitas. And who does not like the convenience of a dish that is all cooked up together on a single baking sheet? (Original recipe can be found over at The Yummy Life http://www.theyummylife.com/Oven_Chicken_Fajitas) Monica of The Yummy Life gained her inspiration from Sheet Pan Suppers, by Molly Gilbert of Dunk & Crumble blog. Thank you, ladies.
Chicken Santa Fe
So I gotta ask, isn’t this chicken dish pretty? Swimming in a spicy gravy, garnished with peppers and tomatoes – yum! And just feast your eyes on that gooie melted cheese. Serve this delightful chicken with a side of refried beans, some warm tortillas and maybe Peach Margaritas.
Taco Baked “Fried” Chicken
Growing up, Fried Chicken – as in real fried chicken – was a stable in our house, especially on Sundays during the summer. Dad cut up the chicken, dredged it in flour and usually fried it in two big, black cast iron skillets filled with melted shortening. I can see him now in my mind’s eye, a kitchen towel draped over one shoulder.
Super Easy Green Chili Chicken Enchiladas
The first time these Chicken Enchiladas were served up for supper, Kiddo was in charge of making dinner. He knocked it out of the ballpark with just a few simple ingredients. One thing is certain, Kiddo knows how to cook.
