Time 33m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
1 garlic clove, minced
1 tablespoon chili powder
2 teaspoons cumin
1 teaspoon paprika
1/2 teaspoon onion powder
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
4 cups rotisserie chicken (shredded, discard skin)
1/2 cup salsa
10 -12 tortillas, warmed

Steps:

  • In a large heavy bottom saucepan, heat the olive oil over medium-low heat. Add the garlic and cook for 1 minute, then add the chili powder, cumin, paprika, onion powder, salt and pepper, stirring to combine.
  • Add the chicken and stir to coat with the spice mixture. If needed, add 2-3 tablespoons of water to help distribute everything evenly. Remove from the heat and stir in the salsa.
  • Serve tacos on warm tortillas with your favorite toppings! I highly recommend adding a spritz of fresh squeezed lime juice at the end.
  • Optional Toppings: avocado, cilantro, white onions, red onions, shredded red or green cabbage, fresh squeezed lime juice, jalapenos (the site won't let me put this in ingredients).

Categories     Chicken

Time 15m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 14

3 green onions, chopped
1 tablespoon corn oil
2 cups cooked chicken, shredded
1/2-1 cup salsa or 1/2-1 cup taco sauce
1 (4 ounce) can diced green chilies
salt, to taste (optional)
12 taco shells
grated cheddar cheese, to garnish
chopped lettuce, to garnish
sour cream, to garnish
salsa, to garnish (optional)
chopped black olives, to garnish (optional)
chopped avocados or guacamole, to garnish (optional)
chopped tomato, to garnish (optional)

Steps:

  • In a large skillet, saute green onion in oil over medium heat (5 minutes) or until tender.
  • Stir in chicken, salsa, green chilies and salt (if using) and cook for 10 minutes and bring to a simmer.
  • Prepare taco shells according to package directions (we heat them in the microwave for about one minute).
  • To serve: either place taco shells, chicken taco meat and garnishes in seperate bowls and let everyone make own tacos or place two tablespoons chicken taco meat in taco shell and top with shredded cheese and garnish with optional garnishes as desired.

Tips:

  • Use a flavorful taco seasoning: This is the key to great-tasting chicken tacos. You can either make your own or use a store-bought blend. If you're making your own, be sure to include cumin, chili powder, paprika, garlic powder, and onion powder.
  • Cook the chicken properly: The chicken should be cooked until it is no longer pink in the center. You can cook it in a skillet, in the oven, or on the grill.
  • Use fresh, high-quality ingredients: This will make a big difference in the taste of your tacos. Look for fresh tortillas, ripe tomatoes, and crisp lettuce.
  • Don't overload the tacos: Less is more when it comes to tacos. Too many toppings will make them difficult to eat and will overwhelm the flavor of the chicken.
  • Serve the tacos with your favorite toppings: This could include salsa, guacamole, sour cream, cheese, or anything else you like.

Conclusion:

Chicken tacos are a delicious, easy-to-make meal that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. They are perfect for a quick weeknight dinner or a fun party food. With a little planning and preparation, you can make chicken tacos that are sure to impress your friends and family.
