CopyCat Del Taco Chicken Tacos

Living in Arizona for 13 years of my adolescent life I grew up loving Del Taco. My parents would get take out there often. My sister, Michelle, that was her favorite taco out. If we did take out one night, Michelle always wanted Del Taco over anything else. She loves the chicken tacos. Now that I live in Ohio, Del Taco is not really out here. I have found 1 or 2 but they are some distance away from us. So, I decided to try and make that for my Sunday Family Movie night pick. Tonight, is my pick and I drew Mexican food so why not give it a try.  Marinade: 3 Large Chicken (I used thin chicken breast), diced 1 Lime, juiced 1 tbsp Taco Seasoning  1 tbsp Soy Sauce 1 tsp Garlic Powder 1 tsp Onion Powder 1 tsp Chicken Bouillon Powder 1/4 tsp Paprika Place all ingredients above into a ziplock, shake well and marinade for 30 minutes to an hour. I found the longer the better flavor.  White Sauce: 1 cup Mayo 1 Lime, juiced Whisk together in a bowl until smooth, set aside until ready for assembly.

Bruschetta

This recipe is easily the best ever! I have made this for the last two years, almost yearly, not the big Ohio State Buckeyes game VS. Michigan. It is the easiest recipe to double, triple or even four times. Absolutely delicious! Really there is nothing more to say about this dish, whip it up, make my homemade baguette and watch everyone you serve this to demand more. When I make this it literally is gone within minutes and I am left wanting more or at least some! LOL!



You Will Need:

Homemade Baguette
3 Organic Tomatoes, diced
3 tbsp Organic Red Onion, minced
1 tsp Organic Garlic
1/3 Cup Organic Basil, chopped
4 tbsp Organic Olive Oil
Salt, to taste



You are gonna want to dice your onion into small pieces, unless you like big chunks of onion when you eat it


Add onion to garlic in a nice bowl


Add your olive oil to the bowl, do not salt yet


Dice and add tomatoes, and basil 


Add salt to taste! Mix well, and bam you are done; so simple, so easy, and so enjoyable 


BEAUTIFUL
