This recipe came from our church cookbook. I like this recipe because I can use either chicken or beef. I have tried both and I like the chicken the best. You can leave out the crushed red pepper which is what I do if you don't like your food spicy.

1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 1/2 teaspoons seasoning salt
1 1/2 teaspoons ground cumin
1/2 teaspoon chili powder

1 1/2 lbs beef or chicken
3-4 tablespoons vegetable oil
1/2 cup sliced onion
1/2 cup sliced green pepper
8 flour tortillas
2 avocados, peeled and sliced
salsa
sour cream

I used cubed beef steak and marinated about an hour. Then, sauteed (till soft) an onion and red, green and yellow bell peppers sprinkled with some extra seasoning salt. Threw in the the meat to cook with the veggies and served with a lentil/wild rice blend. It was fantastic. Husband, 1 year old, 2 1/2 year old and myself ate it with enjoyment.

Sorry, I didn't think these were anything special. My husband and I didn't care for them.

This is a real winner! I made it with chicken and it was much better than the pre-packaged spice mix that I have used in the past.

Hi Haileysgrndma, I have prepared your recipe several times and prefer using chicken instead of beef. The marinade is so yummy and flavorful! Thanks for sharing!
