Iguana Tacos/Burritos

"For people who aren’t accustomed to cooking iguana, it is suggested that an easier route may be to
make iguana tacos or burritos.
Ingredients:
Iguana meat (cooked and cut into small pieces)
Onion
Chives
Avocado
Lime
Chili-lime seasoning
Curry or taco seasoning
Sour cream
Salsa
Flour tortillas
Directions:
1. Wash the iguana meat thoroughly after removing the skin, organs and entrails, so that just
the meat and cartilage remain.
2. Put the iguana meat in boiling water. Add onions to the water for flavor.
Let cook for at least an hour or longer, until tender.
3. Remove the tender meat from the cartilage. Cut into small pieces, separating the white and
dark meats, then season with whichever type of seasoning you enjoy in tacos/burritos.
4. Season the white meat with chili-lime seasoning, curry or any other type of taco-type spice.
5. Chop onions and chives, avocado, limes and other desired toppings.
6. Mix the onions and chives in with the meat. Then, sauté the mixture on medium-high heat
until it is soft.
7. Place the meat in the center of a flour tortilla with avoca- do, sour cream, salsa and other
toppings.
8. Wrap and enjoy.
