Ingredients
  

For the chicken:

  • 1 lb chicken breast
  • 2 tbsp oil
  • 1 serrano sliced thinly
  • 1/2 red onion sliced thinly
  • 2 tsp garlic powder
  • 2 tsp onion powder
  • 1 tsp chipotle chili powder
  • 1 tsp salt to taste
  • fresh black pepper

For the sauce:

  • 1/4 cup mayo
  • 1/4 cup sour cream
  • 1 shallot minced
  • 2 tbsp chopped fresh parsely
  • 2 tbsp chopped fresh cilantro
  • 1 clove garlic minced
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 2 tsp red wine vinegar
  • salt and pepper to taste

To serve:

  • flour tortillas
  • sliced red onion
  • sliced avocado
  • crumbled feta
  • shredded romaine

Instructions
 

  • Combine the ingredients for the sauce and mix well. Taste and adjust the seasoning to your liking. Set aside.
  • Cut the chicken breasts into a few pieces. Place oil in a skillet and heat over medium high heat. Place the chicken in the skillet and sprinkle with the salt, pepper and spices. Allow the chicken to brown, then flip and brown the other side. Add a few tbsp of water to the pan and cover and allow it to cook until fully cooked. If the pan is getting dry, add a bit more water. You want to keep the chicken moist. When it is done, allow to cool a bit and then shred it.
  • In the pan you cooked the chicken in, add another tbsp of oil and add the red onion and pepper and sauté until browned. Add the shredded chicken and mix well and taste. Add salt if needed.
  • Heat the flour tortillas in a skillet until warm. Top a tortilla with shredded chicken, red onion, lettuce, avocado, feta and some sauce and serve.
