  1. Nice way to get Mexican theme with a nice presentation! I made these with the beans from "Chris from Kansas". wonderful meal!
     
  2. 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.
     
  3. Just a note, since I've made these before I saw the recipe on here. They're pretty tasty and freeze well. I put 4 in the freezer and just grab one and pop it in the oven when the mood strikes.
