Taco Ingredients

Method

Preparation Steps

  1. 1

    Prepare the Protein

    In a bowl, combine the grilled chicken or steak with olive oil, salt, pepper, and taco seasoning. Mix well and let it marinate for at least 15 minutes.

  2. 2

    Grill the Chicken or Steak

    Preheat the grill to medium-high heat. Grill the marinated chicken or steak for about 6-8 minutes per side, or until fully cooked. Remove from grill and let it rest for a few minutes before slicing.

  3. 3

    Prepare the Tacos

    While the protein is resting, prepare the taco shells according to package instructions, if necessary. You can warm them on the grill for added flavor.

  4. 4

    Assemble the Tacos

    In each taco shell, layer sliced grilled chicken or steak, followed by lettuce, sour cream, shredded cheese, diced tomato, and avocado slices.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Serve the tacos immediately with your favorite sides or salsa.
