EASY TEX-MEX CHICKEN TACOS
Quick and full of flavor, you can adjust heat by removing the seeds from jalapeno. Garnish tacos with chipotle ranch, salsa verde, and avocado. I make the chipotle ranch with fat free sour cream to save a bit of calories.

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.

Steps:
- In a large skillet, heat the canola oil over medium-high heat; add the onions and cook until translucent. Add the cayenne, chile powder, cumin and Mexican oregano and cook, stirring, until fragrant, about 1 minute. Add the tomato paste and cook, stirring, for 2 minutes. Add the beef and cook until browned, 8 to 10 minutes. Stir in the tomato sauce and apple cider vinegar and cook until the sauce reduces slightly, 3 to 5 minutes.
- Build the tacos in this order: cheese on the bottom, followed by the beef, tomatoes, avocados, lettuce and jalapenos. Serve the sour cream on the taco or on the side for dipping.

Steps:
- Defrost hamburger meat. (However you do this is fine, i.e. microwave, set-out, water).
- While hamburger is defrosting, cut up tomatoes, lettuce, onions, etc. Set aside.
- Next, Brown hamburger meat in large, deep skillet. Once browned, add both cans of Ranch-style beans, cover and leave on low heat to keep warm.
- Heat vegetable oil on low-medium heat in small skillet until hot. BE CAREFUL, OIL WILL BE HOT! Submerge corn tortilla in oil until entire tortilla begins to bubble. (Do not fry too long, tortilla will harden.) Remove and repeat step until all tortillas are dipped in oil and heated. **If you have tongs, this works best to pick up tortillas and remove. A fork tends to tear. (I blot tortillas with a paper towel to sop up some of the oil).
- Build your taco! Add whatever optional ingredients you like!
- **Kids love this recipe because they can put whatever toppings they like.
- **Some people prefer flour tortillas, and if you're in a real hurry, this just makes it even FASTER!
- **Also, this is a great party food. Everyone can bring something different, veggies, salsa, etc.
