Authentic Spicy Chicken Tacos Recipe - Food.com image

Total Time 35 minutes

Prep Time 15 minutes

Cook Time 20 minutes

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 15

8 corn tortillas
1 lb boneless skinless chicken breast, trimmed of fat and cut into thin strips
1/4 teaspoon salt (to taste)
2 teaspoons canola oil, divided
1 large onion, sliced
1 large green bell pepper, seeded and sliced
3 garlic cloves, minced
1 jalapeno pepper, seeded and minced
1 tablespoon ground cumin
1/2 cup prepared hot salsa, plus more for garnish
1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro
sliced scallion
queso fresco
chopped fresh tomato
reduced-fat sour cream, for garnish

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 300°F Wrap tortillas in foil and bake until heated through, 10 to 15 minutes.

  • Reduce heat to medium and add the remaining 1 teaspoon oil to skillet. Add onion and cook, stirring, until they start to brown around the edges, 3 to 5 minutes. Add bell pepper, garlic, jalapeño and cumin. Cook, stirring, until peppers are bright green but still crisp, 2 to 3 minutes more.
  • Stir in salsa and reserved chicken. Cook, stirring, until chicken is heated through, about 2 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in cilantro. Spoon into warmed tortillas and garnish with scallions, queso fresco, tomatoes and sour cream.

SPICY CHICKEN SOFT TACOS WITH GOAT CHEESE | RECIPES | WW USA
Ready in under an hour, these tacos are super simple but full of big flavor. A quick sauce for the chicken gets heat from jalapeño peppers and more depth of flavor from chili powder, cumin and garlic. The cooling crunch from cabbage in the filling and creamy goat cheese contrast the spice well, while the lime adds a bright and flavorful finish. Pick up a rotisserie chicken and shred it to knock 30 minutes off the cook time. Serve with some brown rice and black beans for a full plate. If more spice is needed, add some canned chipotles en adobo, chopped serrano peppers, or cayenne into the tomato sauce while it reduces.
