Taco Fillings

Method

Preparing the Fillings

  1. 1

    Cook the Chicken

    In a skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat. Add the chicken breast and sprinkle with 1 tablespoon of taco seasoning. Cook for about 6-7 minutes on each side until thoroughly cooked. Remove from heat and shred the chicken.

  2. 2

    Cook the Carne Asada

    In the same skillet, add the carne asada and season with the remaining taco seasoning. Cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side for medium-rare, or longer if desired. Remove from heat and slice thinly.

Assembling the Tacos

  1. 3

    Warm the Tortillas

    In a separate skillet or on a griddle, warm the corn tortillas over medium heat for about 30 seconds on each side until soft and pliable.

  2. 4

    Fill the Tacos

    Place a portion of shredded chicken on one tortilla and sliced carne asada on another. Add diced tomatoes, shredded lettuce, and shredded cheese on top of the meat in each taco.

Serving the Sides

  1. 5

    Prepare the Beans and Rice

    On a plate, serve 1 cup of cooked rice and 1 cup of refried beans next to the tacos.

  2. 6

    Garnish and Serve

    Garnish the tacos with fresh cilantro and serve with lime wedges, sour cream, and salsa on the side.
