Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 2 pieces chicken breasts, cooked and shredded
  • 8 small corn tortillas
  • 1 cup diced onions
  • 1 cup chopped cilantro
  • 1 piece lime, juiced
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Salsa or hot sauce (optional)

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Cook the chicken breasts by boiling or grilling until fully cooked (approximately 20-25 minutes). Allow to cool slightly before shredding.
  2. In a non-stick skillet over medium heat, warm each corn tortilla for about 30 seconds on each side until they’re soft and pliable.
  3. In a mixing bowl, toss the shredded chicken with salt, pepper, and lime juice. Mix well.
  4. On each tortilla, layer the seasoned chicken, followed by a generous spoonful of diced onions and a sprinkle of fresh cilantro.
  5. Optional: Add salsa or hot sauce for an extra kick.
  6. Serve your Chicken Street Tacos immediately while they’re warm.

Notes

Consider using grilled vegetables or cooked shrimp as a filling. Prepare all ingredients ahead of time for quick assembly. Avoid overfilling the tacos to prevent messiness. Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 3 days in the fridge or freeze for up to 2 months.
