Quick and Easy Rotisserie Chicken Tacos image

Categories     Mexican

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).
