A taco is just a tortilla folded over and held in your hand.

A quesadilla is just a tortilla folded over and fried.




Actually, a tortilla has to be folded over and have some sort of filling
to be called a taco.

Further, there are several completely different kinds of tortilla, not
just the ones from Mexico with which you are familiar.

And, further, while a quesadilla can be fried, there are varieties that
are not.

Perhaps you should expand your knowledge of that sort of food beyond
what is served at a Gaithersburg Taco Bell. And no, I am not knocking
Taco Bell. A trip to different parts of Mexico, Central and South
America would open your eyes, as would a visit to Spain.

Can't believe they've nothing better to do than whine about a word. I s'pose
they consider it 'racist' to use what they consider the wrong term.

Actually, the package I've got is labeled as 'Flour Tortilla' *and* right under
that, 'Sft Taco'. I suppose the manufacturers dicked it up also.

Oh well.

Hey, you have to feed them a word or two to catch here and there. Funny
thing is when they misspell a word while drooling to smack someone else
for a misspelled word...

There's a restaurant in town called the Cactus Cantina. One of their specialties
is 'Pollo Chipotle'. They wouldn't give me the recipe, so I played around with a
couple variations and came up with this. It's as good as the original.


Chipotle Chicken - John's Way

1 large green pepper (cut in thin strips)
1 large red pepper (cut in thin strips)
1 large onion (cut in thin strips)
2 chicken breasts (halves)

? cup whipping cream
? cup chicken broth
2 or 3 canned chipotle peppers* (remove seeds)
1 tbsp adobe sauce from the chipotle peppers can
3-5 cloves minced garlic
1 tsp lemon juice (fresh is best)
? tsp ground cumin

*three will make this quite warm!

With chicken breasts on their sides, slice each in half lengthwise. Put on hot
grill for about 3 minutes on each side. Don't overcook! As chicken is doing it's
thing, sauté the peppers and onion to your desired degree of doneness in a large
pan. Once chicken is done, cut it into strips about ?" thick.

Put the chicken broth, the chipotle peppers, the adobe sauce from the can, the
garlic, the cumin and the lemon juice in a blender. Blend for a few seconds to
liquefy everything.

Put the chicken strips, the peppers and onions, and the liquefied chipotles,
etc, into the frying pan. While stirring, bring everything to a simmer. Let
simmer for a few minutes just to get everything nice and hot again.

Once everything is hot and done, add the whipping cream. Stir and bring
everything back to a simmer. Remove from heat and serve with fresh soft tacos
immediately.

And, a smear of sour cream on the taco adds a nice touch.

Remember - everything's flexible!

Note: The addition of about 5 tablespoons of honey mustard transforms the sauce
into a great sauce for grilled, fried, or broiled salmon.

Sounds good, I'm going to try it.
