GROUND CHICKEN TACOS

Fast and tasty on Tuesday or any night, these tacos are a perfect vehicle for ground chicken. The meat is amped up with spices and chipotle in adobe so it's flavorful and juicy, and topping the tacos with pico de gallo adds another level of deliciousness.

Steps:

  • In a large skillet, preferably cast iron, heat oil over medium-high. Add 1 cup onion, garlic, and a pinch of salt. Cook, stirring occasionally, until softened and just beginning to brown, 3 to 4 minutes. Add chicken, cumin, coriander, salt, and pepper. Cook, breaking up meat with the back of a wooden spoon, until browned and crumbly, 5 to 6 minutes. Stir in tomato paste, chipotle, and broth. Bring to a simmer, reduce heat and cook until most of the liquid has evaporated, about 1 minute. Keep warm.
  • Stir together remaining onion, tomato, jalapeno, lime and cilantro. Season with salt and pepper. To serve, fill taco shell with meat mixture and pico de gallo and top with cheese, lettuce, and sour cream.

3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 1/2 cups finely chopped white onion
1 tablespoon minced garlic
1 pound ground chicken (preferably dark meat)
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
1/2 teaspoon ground coriander
1 to 2 teaspoons minced chipotle in adobo sauce, plus 1 teaspoon sauce
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1/4 freshly ground pepper
1 tablespoon tomato paste
1/4 cup low sodium chicken broth or water
1 vine tomato, seeded and finely chopped (3/4 cup)
1/4 jalapeno, seeded and finely chopped (1 tablespoon)
1 lime, juiced (2 tablespoons)
1/4 cup finely chopped cilantro leaves and tender stems
Taco shells, grated cheddar or jack cheese, shredded lettuce, and sour cream, for serving

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
  • Heat vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Season one side of chicken breasts with half the cumin, half the garlic powder, salt, and black pepper; arrange chicken breasts with seasoned sides down in the hot oil. Fry until chicken is lightly browned on the bottom, 4 to 5 minutes.
  • Season the top of each chicken breast with the remaining cumin, remaining garlic powder, salt, and black pepper; flip chicken and cook until other side is lightly browned, 4 to 5 minutes. If the skillet gets dry, pour in just enough juice from the salsa to keep it from burning.
  • Transfer chicken breasts to a 9x9-inch baking dish; sprinkle with Mexican cheese blend. Loosen all the drippings from the skillet with a little more juice from the salsa and pour on top of chicken breasts. Spoon salsa over cheese layer.
  • Bake chicken breasts until no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, 20 to 25 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
