CHICKEN CHALUPAS


# 4 corn tortillas, either white, yellow or red


# hot oil for frying tortillas


# 2 cups refried beans


* 2 chicken breast halves, boneless, skinless


* 1/4 olive oil


* 1 teaspoon Bolner’s Fiesta fajita seasoning


* 1 12 oz can Rotel� Tomatoes %26amp; Green Chilies, drained


* 1 cup sour cream


* 1 tablespoon fresh cilantro, chopped fine


* 4 oz. Monterey Jack cheese, grated fine


* 4 cups iceberg lettuce, shredded fine


* 1 cup guacamole (see recipe under Appetizers)


* paprika for garnish





Directions:


Sprinkle both sides of the chicken breasts with the fajita seasoning, then fry until


browned in the olive oil. Remove, let cool, and cut into 1/4” pieces.


Put in a large glass bowl.





Fry the corn tortillas in the hot oil, one at a time, until crisp.


Remove and let cool on a paper towel.





Add the ‘drained’ Rotel tomatoes and green chilies to the bowl of diced chicken.





Add the sour cream and cilantro. Stir to mix well.


Preheat the broiler. While waiting, spread a thin layer of warm beans (1/4” or less)


on each shell followed by a thin layer of the ‘chicken mix’. Next, add a thin layer


(approx. 1 oz) of the Monterey Jack cheese and put all 4 tortillas on a cookie sheet.


Put under the hot broiler for about 2 minutes until the cheese is hot and bubbly and


has slightly ‘browned’.





Remove from the broiler and take 1 cup of the thinly sliced iceberg lettuce and put


in your ‘cupped’ hand. Gently lay the lettuce on top of the melted cheese to form


sort of a small ‘mountain’. Do this on all the remaining ‘shells’.





With a spoon, take approximately 1/4 cup of the guacamole and gently form a ‘dollop’


at the top of the mountain. The guacamole can also be served as a compliment on the side.


Pico de gallo is also another great compliment that will give this dish even more ‘zip’.





Sprinkle a very light layer of paprika across the whole chalupa.


Very carefully, place one chalupa on a smaller plate if serving as an appetizer, or


two on a larger plate if serving as the main entree. A small portion of Ranch dressing


and Pace picante sauce should accompany the chicken chalupas for your guests to


compliment these light, but very filling creations.





The cold crispness of the lettuce and the warm cheese, chicken and beans is a very


surprising combination. Be sure to have a fork handy as these are eaten easiest by


cutting off a small piece at a time.
