Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups Rotisserie chicken, shredded
- 1 tablespoon Taco seasoning
- 3 tablespoons Water
- 6 pieces Flour tortillas
- 1 cup Shredded lettuce
- 1 cup Diced tomatoes
- 1 cup Shredded cheddar cheese
- 0.5 cup Sour cream
- 2 tablespoons Fresh cilantro, chopped (optional)
- 4 pieces Lime wedges (optional, for serving)
Instructions
In a medium skillet over medium heat, add the shredded rotisserie chicken, taco seasoning, and water. Stir to combine and cook for 2-3 minutes, or until the chicken is heated through and coated in seasoning.
While the chicken is warming, heat the flour tortillas in a dry skillet for 30 seconds on each side, or until warm and slightly toasted. Alternatively, wrap them in a damp paper towel and microwave for 30 seconds to soften.
Assemble the tacos by laying a warm tortilla flat and adding a portion of the seasoned chicken down the center.
Top the chicken with shredded lettuce, diced tomatoes, shredded cheddar cheese, and a dollop of sour cream.
For added freshness, sprinkle with chopped cilantro and serve with a lime wedge on the side for squeezing.
Repeat with the remaining tortillas and ingredients. Serve immediately and enjoy!
