Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Chicken

    In a bowl, combine the chicken breasts with olive oil, taco seasoning, salt, and pepper. Mix well to coat the chicken evenly.

  2. 2

    Grill the Chicken

    Heat a grill or skillet over medium-high heat. Add the seasoned chicken breasts and grill for about 6-7 minutes on each side or until fully cooked and no longer pink in the center.

  3. 3

    Slice the Chicken

    Once cooked, remove the chicken from the heat and let it rest for a couple of minutes. Then slice it into thin strips.

  4. 4

    Assemble the Tacos

    Warm the flour tortillas in a skillet or microwave. On each tortilla, place a portion of grilled chicken, followed by lettuce and shredded cheese. Fold the tortilla in half.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Serve the soft chicken tacos immediately, with any additional toppings or sauces as desired.
