EASY CHEESY CHICKEN TACOS

This is a favorite of my family. Also a favorite of mine because it is very quick to put together. I modified it from a recipe found in a Land O Lakes recipe brochure. I use turkey instead of chicken because it is available pre-packaged at my local grocery store.

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Mix oregano, onion powder, salt, paprika, chili powder, cumin, and pepper together in a bowl until well combined.
  • Place chicken breasts on the prepared baking sheet and drizzle with olive oil. Spread 1/2 of the seasoning mixture on both sides of chicken.
  • Bake in the preheated oven, flipping halfway through cooking time, until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the center of the chicken reads at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C), about 30 minutes. Remove from the oven and transfer chicken to a cutting board. Leave the oven on, and line baking sheet with a fresh piece of parchment paper.
  • Shred cooked chicken with 2 forks and transfer to a bowl. Mix in Mexican cheese, cream cheese, and remaining seasoning blend until well combined. Place a couple of scoops of the mixture across the bottom 1/3 of a tortilla. Roll up tightly and place on the prepared baking sheet. Repeat with remaining mixture and tortillas.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until golden and crispy, about 15 minutes.

  • Add the chicken, garlic, olive oil, lime, and spices, to a large bowl or zip-seal bag and stir or shake to combine.
  • Heat a large pan to medium-high heat. Cook chicken 6-7 minutes per side or until it is no longer pink and the internal temperature of 165 degrees F. Remove from heat and cool for at least 5 minutes. Slice or chop into small cubes.
  • While the chicken is cooking, combine the chopped tomato, jalapeno, onion, cilantro, and lime juice in a small bowl. Char tortillas on the stovetop over the flame until lightly charred (this step is optional).
  • Assemble tacos by placing about 1/4 cup of chicken into each tortilla. Top with a few tablespoons of the onion-tomato mixture and a drizzle of cilantro sauce (*optional, see recipe in notes).

  • In a large zipper-topped plastic baggie or in shallow dish, add the chicken, all of the spices, lime juice, and oil. Close the bag and use your hands to mix everything together. If you are using a shallow dish, use tongs to work the spices evenly into the chicken. You can let this rest for up to a half-hour or work with it right away. I like to let it rest a minute to increase the flavor.
  • Heat a large skillet over medium to medium-high heat. When the skillet is hot, add the chicken. Cook for 12 to 14 minutes, turning once, until the chicken is cooked through. Remove the chicken from the pan and let it rest for 10 minutes. If you have an extra-large chicken thigh, you’ll need to cook them longer, so turn down the heat to medium and cook them until no longer pink (could take up to 25 minutes or 12 minutes per side).
  • While the chicken cooks, stir together the chicken taco topping by placing the chopped onion, cilantro, jalapeño, and the juice of one lime in a small bowl. Add salt and pepper, and stir to combine.
  • While the chicken rests, wipe your skillet clean with a warm rag or paper towels, and place the skillet back on the heat over medium-high to high heat. Place two tortillas (still stacked together) on the skillet and cook until the underside starts to char. Flip over and cook the other side (so the middle of each tortilla won’t be cooked against the skillet but it will get warm all the way though). Repeat with remaining tortillas.
