Recipe Chicken Tacos Nicholas Charles - Updated January 5th, 2024 2 mins read time As a fanatical aficionado of cilantro, I cannot ignore its important role in Mexican cuisine. I love Mexican food – perhaps not as ardently as I love cilantro, but, let’s face it: there are few things in the world that deserve this highest level of admiration. I would lie if I said I remember the moment when I first tried cilantro. I do remember, however, that right after the first bite I knew we were going to be good friends. You can either love or hate cilantro – some people loathe it, claiming that it tastes like soap. Personally, I don’t care for eating soap, but eating cilantro is one of my favourite activities. As someone who loves mexican food, you just can’t ignore cilantro. It’s the cornerstone of the cuisine. Cilantro just makes everything better. After you try it for the first time, you just know. It’s one of those things where you either love it or you hate it. Cilantro on tacos is a must. You can use it with soft or hard shell one’s. It goes well with all types of meat like beef, chicken and fish. You can even put some grated cheese on your tacos, with guac, tomato salsa, fresh sour cream and of course a hint of lime. It all depends on what flavors you prefer.
