I made this to try and use up some whole milk that needed using up.
I didn’t have the exact ingredients (my cottage cheese was zero fat) and not enough milk, so it turned out a bit dry but it was fine. Very quick to throw together.

This was good, the honey mustard was especially good with the brussels sprouts. I used dejon and whole seed mustards, no nuts.

EASY CHICKEN TACOS.
I’ll preface this by saying the taco filling was really delicious - flavorful and juicy. We both loved it, and I’ll be making it again. I marinated the meat about an hour. Next time I’ll give it two hours. 1 1/4 lbs. chicken thighs made enough for 6 generous tacos (we like our tacos stuffed).
Did I find this method any easier than any other method I use for cooking and seasoning taco filling (or even easier, using leftover seasoned and roasted chicken)? No. But it’s good and worth the minimal effort.

Thanks for the report, I have this recipe saved but always nice to get some intel before investing the time and energy!

i’m thinking of having a taco night during the holidays, and was poking around for a chicken filling rec. Do you have one you like the most?
All tacos including chicken ones from Wes Avila’s Guerilla Taco are outstanding.
Chicken Adobo
I was going to suggest carnitas, but then realized your looking for chicken recipes. I think what I liked so much about the NYT recipe is the method results in a carnita-like finish to the filling. It doesn’t feed many, however. How many are you feeding? If a large crowd, I’d go for roasting whole chickens - either Bayless’s Roadside Chicken or Serious Eats Peruvian Chicken - and shredding the meat and using that.

Errrr…I should have specified “grilling” and not “roasting”.
Has anyone made this?
A friend is making a baked pasta dish for a small dinner party this weekend and I am tasked with salad, as I usually am. I have yet to bring an “expected” salad and they have always liked what I have brought. But is this too out there?? It sounds fabulous to me.
Why not? Sounds like a really refreshing twist on Turkish salad. And poms make everything beautiful
