A new way to make tacos, Cinco de Mayo dishes from Mexico, the latest on sleep and rest, and other recipes to try.
There's no better meal to serve tomorrow than tacos – and we just might have the perfect recipe. While you probably think about tossing your taco meat onto the grill for a bit of char and smoky flavor, you can achieve wonderfully fork tender meat without stepping away from the stove. All you need is your Dutch oven (and your favorite taco toppings, of course). Putting chicken breasts into your Dutch oven and cooking them partially on the stove, partially simmering in the oven achieves two key taco successes. It gives you an initial sear, but it also infuses moisture to keep that chicken from drying out in the oven. And you'll get the bonus of extra-flavorful taco meat by cooking it in a mixture of chipotle peppers with adobo, broth, tomatillos and tomatoes. The end result? One impressively good taco! We love serving this Dutch oven recipe with a fresh salsa and homemade tortillas.
