Bone and skin are left on the chicken breasts so they're extra flavorful as they simmer in tomato sauce and a blend of savory seasonings.

Time 50m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 15

2 (8 ounce) cans Goya Tomato Sauce
2 teaspoons Goya White Distilled Vinegar
2 teaspoons Goya Minced Garlic
3 ½ teaspoons ancho chile powder
1 teaspoon Goya Ground Cumin
2 teaspoons Goya Oregano Leaf
½ teaspoon sugar
2 tablespoons Goya Extra Virgin Olive Oil
2 pounds bone-in, skin-on chicken breasts
Goya Adobo with Pepper, to taste
1 (10 ounce) package Goya Corn Tortillas, warmed
¼ cup finely chopped white onion
1 lime, cut into wedges
2 tablespoons coarsely chopped fresh cilantro
Goya Hot Sauce

Steps:

  • In medium bowl, mix together tomato sauce, vinegar, garlic, chili powder, cumin, oregano, and sugar. Season with Adobo; set aside.
  • Heat oil in large skillet over medium-high heat. Season chicken with Adobo. Cook chicken, turning once, until light golden brown on both sides, about 5 minutes. Add reserved tomato sauce mixture to pan; bring to a boil (be careful, the tomato sauce can splatter). Lower heat to medium low. Simmer, covered, until cooked through (thermometer will register 170 degrees F when inserted into thickest part of breast), flipping once, about 20 minutes.
  • Transfer chicken to cutting board; reserve sauce in pan. Remove and discard bones and skin. Using two forks, shred chicken breast. Transfer chicken to skillet with sauce, mixing to combine; continue to cook until sauce reduces and blends into chicken, and mixture begins to caramelize, about 10 minutes more.
  • Transfer chicken mixture to serving bowl. Spoon into warmed corn tortillas. Garnish with lettuce, tomatoes, avocados and/or onions, if desired. Sprinkle with hot sauce, if desired.

I would not recommend this recipe. The tacos were bland and the chicken was dry. I will not be making these again.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my tacos turned out dry and bland. I followed the recipe exactly, but something must have gone wrong.

The chicken tacos were a bit dry for my taste. I think I'll add more salsa next time.
