Chicken tacos

    I grew up with your traditional beef taco on my dinner plate. My mom would cook up the ground beef, add some spices and then set aside some fixings so my brothers and I could make our tacos how we like them.
    I'm all for tacos, and I really wanted to try this chicken taco recipe.


Ingredients
    1 egg, lightly beaten
    1/2 cup of seasoned bread crumbs
    1/4 tsp salt
    1/8 tsp pepper
    4 chicken tenderloins
    1 tbs canola oil
    4 corn tortillas
    whatever toppings you want


Directions
    Place egg in one shallow bowl and bread crumbs, salt and pepper in a second one.
    Drag chicken through egg and then crumb mix.
    In a large skillet over medium heat, cook chicken in oil for 5-7 minutes
    Serve on tortillas and whatever ingredients you want.

Changes I made!  
     I went with a flour tortilla instead of corn. Just put the tortillas in the oven to cook up a little bit.
    Also, the chicken alone, works as a great chicken tender, so you don't need to throw it in a taco shell if you don't want to.

This recipe is from Taste of Home.
