Instructions
Step 1
First prepare marinade for chicken. In a bowl, mix together wine, lime peel and juice, Worcestershire sauce, sugar, basil, oregano and garlic. Slice chicken breast into thin strips. Add to marinade. Mix well and marinate 30 to 40 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Step 2
In a skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of the oil. Add green onions and bell peppers; cook until onions are starting to brown, but the vegetables are still crisp. Remove from skillet and set aside. Drain chicken, reserving marinade.
Step 3
In a skillet, heat remaining oil over medium-high heat. Add chicken (in several batches, if necessary) and fry quickly until golden-brown. Remove from pan with a slotted spoon and set aside. Add reserved marinade to pan and boil until thickened. Return chicken and peppers to skillet; mix well until all ingredients are coated.
Step 4
Put tortillas on a plate. Place spoonfuls of chicken mixture in the middle of each tortilla; top with sour cream and avocado. Fold, garnish and serve.
