Todd: John, so you're wife taught us how to make tacos.
托德：约翰，你妻子曾经教过我们做墨西哥卷饼的方法。

John: She's a good woman.
约翰：她是个优秀的女性。

Todd: Can you make anything?
托德：你会做什么吗？

John: Yeah, my favorite food is Mexican food. So I can make a pretty good Mexican chicken casserole.
约翰：会，我最爱的食物就是墨西哥饮食。所以我的墨西哥鸡肉砂锅做得很好。

Todd: OK, first of all, what are the ingredients?
托德：好的，那先来说说，配料都需要什么？

John: Let's see. Well, you need chicken, chili powder, rice, canned mushroom soup, and lots of cheese.
约翰：我想想。嗯，你需要鸡肉，辣椒粉，米，罐装蘑菇汤，还有大量的奶酪。

Todd: OK, and how do you make it?
托德：好的，那要怎么做呢？

John: Basically, you cook the chicken. You can like grill it or bake it. Whatever you want and you strip it into pieces and then you cook the rice and then you take the rice and the chicken and the mushroom soup and the cheese and the chili powder and you basically mix it all together in a big slop and then you put it in a casserole dish and throw it in the oven.
约翰：基本上来说，你要烹饪鸡肉。你可以按你喜欢的烤熟或是烘焙。按你喜欢的方式做就行，但是要把鸡肉切成块，之后就是要做米饭，把米饭、鸡肉、蘑菇汤、奶酪还有辣椒粉放在一起搅拌，之后把它们放在盘碟里，再放进烤箱里。

Todd: Oh, wow, sounds pretty good. How long does it take to make?
托德：哦，哇，听上去真不错。烹饪的过程要多长时间？

John: You could do it in about an hour.
约翰：大约一个小时。

Todd: An hour!
托德：一个小时！

John: Yeah.
约翰：对。

Todd: Wow, that's pretty fast.
托德：哇，那真快啊。

John: An hour or under an hour.
约翰：一个小时，或者不到一个小时。

Todd: OK, have you made it recently?
托德：好的，你最近有做这道菜吗？

John: No, I haven't made it in awhile. It's hard to find all the ingredients. Cream of mushroom soup is, I don't see it that often in Japan.
约翰：没有，我有一段时间没做过了。很少找齐所有的配料。我很少在日本看到奶油蘑菇汤。
