Preparation

Step 1

In a large skillet, heat oil over high heat. Add garlic and chicken. Sauté for 2-3 minutes till chicken is browned. Add lime juice, spices, onion and red pepper. Cook for 2-3 minutes on medium heat stirring constantly. Remove from heat and cover to keep warm.

SERVING SUGGESTIONS: Use corn tortillas. Spread 1 tablespoon sour cream, avocado and salsa on tortilla. Add a layer of cilantro and cheese, then add chicken mixture to the middle. Roll up from one side folding over one edge to hold mixture in place. Serve a big spinach salad as well.

LC SERVING SUGGESTIONS: Use Romaine leaves in lieu of tortillas and enjoy--this really is delicious!**
