Made this last night for a quick little dinner. I used good seasonings zesty italian dressing to marinate the chicken. This is definately a keeper. I grilled the chicken on the Forman grill along with some onions and topped the flour tortilla as instructed. Thank you for a easy and delicious meal. Made for My-3-Chefs Nov. 2009.
