Method

Preparation Steps

1

Cook the Chicken

In a skillet over medium heat, add olive oil. Once hot, add the chicken breasts and cook for about 6-7 minutes per side, or until fully cooked and no longer pink in the center.

2

Season the Chicken

Sprinkle taco seasoning over the cooked chicken and add a splash of water. Stir to combine and let simmer for another 2-3 minutes until the chicken is well coated with seasoning.

3

Prepare the Tortillas

While the chicken is cooking, warm the corn tortillas in a separate pan or microwave until soft and pliable.

4

Shred the Chicken

Once cooked, remove the chicken from the skillet and let it rest for a few minutes. Then shred the chicken using two forks.

5

Assemble the Tacos

Place shredded chicken in the center of each tortilla. Top with shredded lettuce, diced tomatoes, shredded cheese, a dollop of sour cream, and fresh cilantro.

6

Serve

Squeeze fresh lime juice over the tacos and serve immediately.
