Hubby and I are eating light and healthy today so this Saucy Chicken Tacos was made just for the boys. I went out to the shops a week ago and I tried to find some taco shells but there weren’t any.
Taco Shells
So today I stuck to some soft taco shells, in the form of my homemade Tortillas. This time I halved the recipe and made 12 mini tortillas, they worked perfectly for this recipe.
If you are making these Tacos for a whole family you can double the recipe or just add 2 extra chicken breasts with a little more spice. They are absolutely flavorful, saucy and totally yum!
Making the Chicken Tacos
Apart from making the tortillas this recipe is so quick and easy. But if you have store bought taco shells there’s no need to stress. I popped the chicken into the tortillas and topped it up with some tomato, onion, jalapenos, coriander and avocado with some sour cream on top. You can also add some lettuce and cheese if you prefer.
Saucy Tacos
The sauce makes all the difference to these Chicken Tacos. We hate dry food and the sauce just adds a new dimension to these tacos. This is by no means an authentic mexican version, just my little take on it. We usually go to a Mexican restaurant if we really crave mexican food. I must say I haven’t yet come across a restuarant where I was wowed by their mexican food so for now my version of Saucy Chicken Tacos will do.
I also have a recipe for Lamb Tacos which I make often. Also one of my kids favorites so if you don’t want chicken you can try the lamb recipe. Please drop me a note and a star rating if you do try this recipe. If you loved this, please share!
