Chicken Tacos 🌮🤩

Ingredients

• 500 g Chicken Breast (cut into thin strips)
• 2 tbsp Olive Oil (for sautéing)
• 1 tsp Salt (adjust to taste)
• ½ tsp Black Pepper (freshly ground)
• 1 tsp Chili Flakes (adjust for heat level)
• 1 cup Shredded Cheddar Cheese (prefer sharp cheddar for flavor)
• 8 pieces Hard Taco Shells (store‑bought, corn or flour)
• ½ cup Lettuce (shredded, optional garnish)

Instructions

1. Prepare the Chicken

   Trim any fat from the chicken breast and cut into thin strips. Place the strips in a bowl, drizzle with olive oil, and season with salt, black pepper, and chili flakes. Toss to coat evenly.

   Time: PT5M

2. Cook the Chicken

   Heat the skillet over medium‑high heat. Add the seasoned chicken strips and sauté for about 6‑8 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the chicken is cooked through and lightly browned.

   Time: PT8M

   Temperature: Medium‑high heat

3. Warm the Taco Shells

   While the chicken finishes cooking, pre‑heat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Arrange the hard taco shells on a baking sheet or taco holder and warm for 3‑4 minutes until crisp.

   Time: PT4M

   Temperature: 350°F

4. Assemble the Tacos

   Fill each warmed taco shell with a generous portion of cooked chicken. Sprinkle shredded cheddar cheese on top while the chicken is still hot so the cheese melts. Add a pinch of extra chili flakes for heat and garnish with shredded lettuce if desired.

   Time: PT5M

5. Serve

   Arrange the assembled tacos on a serving plate and enjoy while hot and crispy.

   Time: PT2M
