Taco Chicken is an elegant and tasty dish. This was my first experience with "flattening" chicken breasts. The first one looked pretty horrible, but after I got the hang of it they turned out nicely. For me, this is a "special occasion" recipe, because I wouldn't go through all that pounding for an everyday dinner. I used recipe #25449 for the Taco Seasoning Mix.
