Chili Chicken

My Grandma use to make this for us & she knew how to make some GOOD Mexican food. This recipe is really easy to make & full of YUMMY flavor. You've got to try it.


Ingredients:

4 Chicken Breast
1 Tbsp. Butter
1/4 C. All Purpose Flour
4 C. Chicken Broth
1/4 C. Chili Powder
Garlic Salt to Taste

Directions:

Boil chicken in a large pot for 1 hour or until chicken is cooked through. Shred the chicken & set aside. In a large skillet, melt butter & add flour to make the Roux (Which is a thickening for sauces & soups) Just so you know. Cook the Roux for about a minute to cook out the flour taste and slowly add the chicken broth whisking as you pour. Add the chili powder & garlic salt to taste. Then add the shredded chicken & simmer on medium/low heat for about 5 minutes or so until sauce thickens.

Serve with flour tortillas!!
