Though this has also included, sour cream and salsa.

This was quite a straight forward, easy recipe that can be made within minutes. The preparation, Mise En Place is quite quick enough. Gather carrots, peel and grate. The lettuce shall be shredded, with the cheese grated also. The seasoning of the chicken is a taco mix, the chicken breasts which are cut into rectangular like sizes are mixed with oil and covered with the seasoning mix. Though necessarily it does not need to be perfect a rough estimate will be sufficient. In which doing so a baking tray is prepared and lined with baking paper. The chicken is then laid onto the tray and placed in the oven preheated in a temperature of 180 oC. The baking time should waver around 10 to 12 mins. After it has been so, still make sure and check that the chicken is cooked. 

Chicken and pork are dangerous when undercooked, the composition of pork and chicken makes it more the risk for parasitic worms. Unlike sashimi, sushi, medium-rare beef, etc.

When the chicken has been checked to be cooked the tortilla is heated in the microwave, though other alternatives are such as a pan, oven or even direct fire. After they are to temperature, build up the taco, the chicken first then the rest of the ingredients with the condiments, sour cream and salsa last.

It was quite a simple yet delicious taste. The blend of the vegetables neutralizes the overpowering taste of the chicken and provided freshness. The salsa provided a needed moisture with the sour cream as well. 

Though it can still be improved upon, additional red onions would have given it a nice kick. Being a fan of 'spice' as well I would've liked a couple of chillis inside. The chicken could've had a much better crunch if it were fried as well. Still, it was a pleasant dish, which I would recommend to do again.
