Chicken Carnitas-Restaurant Style-Easy!

1. 1

   After prepping the food heat a large heavy skillet over med-hi to high heat and add the butter and olive oil and allow them to bubble and get sizzling. Add the chicken and spread evenly into pan. Watch the heat and adjust the temp as needed! You need the skillet to be hot yet you dont want to scorch the chicken or oil.

2. 2

   Stir fry chicken for about 4 mins and then add the onion and peppers. You may need to increase the heat for a bit if the skillet cools down too much-remember we want the chicken and veggies to carmelize a bit. If needed add a bit more butter or olive oil.

3. 3

   Let veggies and chicken cook at least 4 more minutes and then sprinkle with garlic salt and pepper. 1/2 tsp is about what I use but it's just an estimate-please go heavy or light depending on your preference.

4. 4

   At this point if you can tell the chicken is done(test a piece if needed) then stir in the A-1 sauce and let the chicken and veggies cook about 1 minute or so.

5. 5

   Serve with the flour tortillas and top with shredded lettuce, chopped cilantro, and guacamole. A squeeze of lime is also good. I love to serve with pot scrubbers mexican rice and mashed pinto beans.
