Chicken tacos with strips of green bell pepper and onion seasoned with chili powder, topped with cheddar, little gem lettuce and cilantro. Verde means green in Spanish, and here the green comes from the bell pepper and cilantro rather than from a tomatillo salsa verde. The tacos use soft wheat tortillas, as in Tex-Mex cooking.
Ingredients
Preparation
Wash and cut the bell peppers, removing the core and seeds. Cut into thin strips, then in half.
Peel and thinly slice the onion.
Cut the chicken into thin strips.
Heat a drizzle of olive oil in a pan. Add the onion. Mix and cook for 2 to 3 minutes over medium heat.
Add the bell peppers and continue cooking for 3 to 4 more minutes.
Add the chicken to the pan and cook for 3 minutes. Season with salt and pepper and add the chili powder. Mix and set aside.
Wash and finely shred the lettuce.
Warm the tortillas in the microwave or in a pan.
Fill the tortilla with the chicken, bell pepper and onion mixture, the lettuce and the cheddar. Add a few cilantro leaves if you have some. It's ready!
