Prepare the Protein

  1. 1

    Cooking Chicken Breast

    In a skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat. Add diced chicken breast and cook until fully cooked through, about 7-10 minutes. Season with 2 tablespoons of taco seasoning.

  3. 3

    Heating Black Beans

    In a small saucepan, heat 1 cup of canned black beans over medium heat. Stir occasionally until warmed through, about 5 minutes. Add a pinch of salt if desired.

Prepare the Tacos

    On each warmed tortilla, layer your choice of protein (beef, chicken, or black beans), followed by shredded lettuce, diced tomatoes, shredded cheese, sour cream, salsa, and jalapeños.
