EASY AND FAST SOFT CHICKEN TACOS

I had a busy day and came up with this easy recipe for soft tacos. It's good, fast and inexpensive. I usually make two at a time but if you have a tortilla warmer, that will make it easier for everyone to eat at the same time.

  • Add salsa to the chicken and simmer on low for 10-15 minutes.
  • Place lettuce, tomatoes and sour cream into individual bowls and set aside.
  • Place two tortillas in a brown lunch bag,.
  • close tightly and microwave for 30 seconds.
  • Place 2 tortillas on a plate and add ingredients in any order you like. There is no real way to make a taco.
  • While the first person is making their tacos, heat the second person's tortillas, and so on. This way everyone's food is hot. If you have a tortilla warmer, that would work great.

CHICKEN SOFT TACOS

My family loves these tacos. The chicken filling cooks in the slow-cooker, so it's convenient to throw it together before I leave for work. At the end of the day, I just have to roll it up in a soft taco shell with the remaining ingredients and dinner's ready in minutes. The chicken also makes a great topping for salad. -Cheryl Newendorp, Pella, Iowa

Steps:

  • Mix water and taco seasoning in a large bowl. Add tomato sauce, vinegar, garlic, oregano, cumin, and sugar; mix well.
  • Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add chicken and cook until golden brown, about 5 minutes per side. Add tomato sauce mixture and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer until chicken is no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, about 20 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
  • Remove chicken breasts from the pan and shred meat with 2 forks when cool enough to handle. Return shredded chicken to the pan with the tomato sauce. Cook and stir until chicken is coated with sauce and sauce reduces a bit, about 5 minutes.
  • Transfer chicken and sauce to a serving bowl and spoon onto taco shells.

  • In a large zipper-topped plastic baggie or in shallow dish, add the chicken, all of the spices, lime juice, and oil. Close the bag and use your hands to mix everything together. If you are using a shallow dish, use tongs to work the spices evenly into the chicken. You can let this rest for up to a half-hour or work with it right away. I like to let it rest a minute to increase the flavor.
  • Heat a large skillet over medium to medium-high heat. When the skillet is hot, add the chicken. Cook for 12 to 14 minutes, turning once, until the chicken is cooked through. Remove the chicken from the pan and let it rest for 10 minutes. If you have an extra-large chicken thigh, you’ll need to cook them longer, so turn down the heat to medium and cook them until no longer pink (could take up to 25 minutes or 12 minutes per side).
  • While the chicken cooks, stir together the chicken taco topping by placing the chopped onion, cilantro, jalapeño, and the juice of one lime in a small bowl. Add salt and pepper, and stir to combine.
  • While the chicken rests, wipe your skillet clean with a warm rag or paper towels, and place the skillet back on the heat over medium-high to high heat. Place two tortillas (still stacked together) on the skillet and cook until the underside starts to char. Flip over and cook the other side (so the middle of each tortilla won’t be cooked against the skillet but it will get warm all the way though). Repeat with remaining tortillas.

  • Add the chicken to a bowl, shallow dish, or ziploc bag. Add the spices and lime juice and use tongs to make sure the chicken is evenly coated. If you have time, let this rest for up to thirty minutes. If not, you can move on to the next step right away. It will still pack in plenty of flavor.
  • Heat a skillet over medium-high heat with the oil. Once hot, add the chicken. Cook for 7-10 minutes, stirring occasionally until chicken is just cooked through. To ensure the chicken stays tender, try not to over-cook it. Remember it will continue to cook while you warm the tortillas.
