The sauce was made the day before, so all we had to do today was to assemble them. We did not have any hard shell tacos, so I used soft shells and also pita bread. I used chicken breast from a rotisserie chicken I had bought and froze early this year. This was a very refreshing light "taco" for a Sunday lunch.

What a fantastic alternative to a taco!!! I made this for lunch today...I knew it was something my kids would eat however; I figured a p.b. & j. sandwich would need to be made for the little boy my daughter is watching this summer. He really enjoyed them as well. (a kid pleaser here) I opted to use fresh cucumber in the sauce along with a little minced fresh onion and I omitted the olive oil. Oh, and I used Kalamata olives, but instead of adding them to the sauce, I chopped them and topped only the tacos of those who wanted them. I will definitely be making this recipe again. Thanks for sharing Peter. Made and reviewed for the AUS/NZ Recipe Swap #53

The farm adored this! What a grand idea, and only a "Naughty but Nice" would of thought of such an amazing meal. I loved everything about this! I followed this exactly, except used the optional cucumber instead of the gherkin. Let the sauce sit over night, and it was so good, I have to keep changing spoons from tasting it so much! I used an extra chicken breast I had cooked the other day, specifically for this occasion, and marinated the chicken with the sauce for about 4 more hours before serving. Used x-large shells, and this was one crunchy delight! Had some fresh baby greens from the garden just starting to peek up, and these went perfectly with this. Thanks for being such a special guy, and sharing your delightful recipes from the "down-under".

<p>I live close Hobart in Tasmania, a wonderful part of Australia but a little chilly in winter so be sure to book your holiday for summer! I'm self-employed in the embedded electronics area and being at home most of the day gives me plenty of time to prepare those recipes with long preparation and cooking times. As most of my clients are either interstate or overseas I get to occasionally catch up with them and enjoy their local restaurants, always nice to have someone else paying the bills! <br /> <br />As well as food I'm partial to the odd beer & wine, so often like to go to a local pub and catch some local bands. No need for an alarm clock in the morning, my cat Molly likes her breakfast at 8:00AM sharp and makes an effective alarm! Lately I've been starting to get into some digital photography so you might be seeing a few additional recipe shots on Zaar... <br /> <br /><a href=http://www.satsleuth.com/VisitorMap/stats.php?id=vUa1ya8Z> <br /><img src=http://www.satsleuth.com/VisitorMap/globes/Globe_vUa1ya8Z.gif alt= /></a></p>
