Chicken Taco Recipes

Steps:

• In a large skillet over medium heat, combine chicken, lemonade, olive oil, lime juice, and Worcestershire sauce. Season with garlic powder, onion powder, and bay leaf. Simmer until chicken is no longer pink, and juices run clear, 15 to 20 minutes.
• Meanwhile, warm the tortillas in the oven or microwave until soft. When chicken is fully cooked, transfer to serving bowl. Place lettuce, tomatoes, cheese, salsa, and sour cream in serving dishes. Each person can create their own wrap, using their preferred ingredients.

Steps:

• For the chicken: Generously sprinkle both sides of the breasts with the taco seasoning. Heat the oil and butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the chicken on both sides until deep golden brown on the outside and done in the middle (or to an internal temperature of 165 degrees F), about 4 minutes per side. Set aside to cool for 5 minutes.
• For the dressing: While the chicken is cooking, pour the ranch dressing into a bowl. Add the salsa and cilantro and stir to combine.
• For the salad: Next, place the ears of corn in the skillet you used to cook the chicken and roll them around so that the flavorful oil/butter mixture coats the corn. Grill on a grill pan or cook in a separate skillet until the corn is still crisp but has color on the outside. Slice off the kernels with a sharp knife and set aside. Dice the chicken into cubes.
• On a platter, layer the shredded lettuce, diced chicken, tomatoes, cheese, corn, avocados, green onions, cilantro and crushed chips. Drizzle the dressing all over the top, saving some to serve on the side if you'd like. Serve the salad in individual bowls.

Steps:

• In a skillet over medium-high heat, add the olive oil and heat until hot. Add the chicken in batches and cook, browning, a couple minutes per side; remove the chicken to a plate using a slotted spoon. Add the garlic and onions to the skillet and cook briefly. Add the chili powder, paprika, cumin and salt to taste. Pour in the tomato sauce and 2 cups water to create a broth. Add the chicken back to the skillet. Bring to a boil, then simmer until the broth is reduced by half.
• Let cool, divide among 4 freezer bags and freeze.

Steps:

• Whisk olive oil, remaining jerk seasoning, and remaining lime juice together in a separate bowl. Add chicken and stir to coat.
• Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat and lightly oil the grate.
• Place pineapple slices on the top rack of the grill. Place chicken directly on the grill. Cook for 6 minutes. Flip both pineapple and chicken over and grill until chicken is no longer pink, about 6 minutes more. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center of the chicken should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C). Transfer to a cutting board and let rest for 5 minutes.
• Slice the chicken into thin strips and divide between the tortillas. Chop the pineapple and divide between the tortillas.
• Top each each taco with shredded cabbage, onion, and cilantro. Drizzle each with reserved sauce. Serve immediately.
