Method
Taco Filling Preparation
Cook the Chicken
In a large skillet over medium heat, add the ground chicken. Cook, stirring occasionally, until fully cooked and browned, about 5-7 minutes.
Add Vegetables
Add the minced garlic, red bell pepper, and pineapple chunks to the skillet. Cook for an additional 3-4 minutes until the vegetables are tender.
Season the Mixture
Stir in the soy sauce, ground cumin, chili powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix well and let it cook for another 2-3 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together.
Taco Assembly
Prepare Taco Shells
While the filling is cooking, warm the taco shells according to package instructions.
Assemble the Tacos
Once the taco shells are warm, spoon the chicken and vegetable mixture into each taco shell. Top with shredded lettuce, diced tomatoes, shredded cheese, and a dollop of sour cream.
Garnish
Sprinkle fresh cilantro over the top and serve with lime wedges on the side for squeezing over the tacos.
