Heat ½ cup olive oil over medium-high heat in a heavy skillet.

tortilla, leaving a slight opening at the tip and
securing it with a toothpick. Deep
fry each shell for about 30 seconds each side or
until crisp. Drain on paper towel.
2.
Heat 1 tsp. olive oil over medium heat in non-stick skillet.
3. Add chicken, coarse chile,
salt and garlic. Cook over medium heat for
approximately 5 minutes or until chicken is cooked
through, stirring occasionally.
Remove from heat. Allow to cool.
4. Shred chicken.
5. Evenly divide chicken, tomato,
onion and lettuce among taco shells. Makes twelve
servings of 1 taco each (3.8 oz./serving).

Instead use them fresh or toasted in the oven.
