Sure mloukhiyeh, mjaddra and moghrabieh are delicious but it’s nice to change every now and then.

Get your long fluffy skirt on and your best heel and start smacking the floor with all the power you’ve got because we’re firing it up with chicken tacos that went to Asia once and they can’t stop telling us about it!

Sure you’re gonna say this is cultural appropriation and all that jazz. But I’ll only plead guilty when I go to an Asian or Lantin country and rule it “democratically” for a few decades then go spread their food and label it as mine.
As for now, this is just a fusion that might not rock your boat. So, chill sweetie!
Let’s fire those tortillas.

This can be a very intimate recipe to prepare for two. Run the knife across those chicken breasts while the oranges are being squeezed before getting those tortillas warm and ready to be stuffed!
Or rock the sharp blade on those veggies as you flame things up and get ready to receive the seasoned chicken.
Think of it. Try it!
