Our chicken tacos recipe makes a meal that’s light, refreshing and bound to please just about everyone. This recipe includes an incredibly simple avocado salsa, which is the perfect topping for deliciously seasoned chicken tacos.<\/p>\n
Place a large skillet coated with cooking spray over medium-high heat. Cut chicken into strips and brown on both sides. Add water, sugar and seasonings, then cook for 4 to 5 minutes or until the chicken is no longer pink inside, stirring occasionally.<\/p>\n
Meanwhile, in a small bowl, gently mix the avocado, corn, tomatoes and lime juice. Spoon the chicken mixture into taco shells; top with avocado salsa.<\/p>\n
Store chicken tacos in the refrigerator once the chicken strips have cooled down. It’s best to store the chicken on its own in airtight containers, rather than in assembled taco form. The cooked chicken will last 3 to 4 days in the refrigerator. Avocado salsa is most appealing when it’s made fresh.<\/p>\n
The cooked chicken freezes well; just store it in airtight freezer containers or zippered freezer bags once the chicken cools. Thaw the chicken in the freezer overnight before reheating it.<\/p>\n
Absolutely! Prepare the chicken strips a night or so ahead of time, then make the tortillas and avocado salsa fresh, or a little ahead of time on the same day it’s needed.<\/p>\n
There’s an art to choosing a ripe avocado! A little too soon and it feels like a rock, a little too late and it’s mushy. A ripe avocado is dark green, almost black, and gives just a little when you press on it. Push on several avocados in a store and you’ll discover the differences in ripeness. Here’s how to cut an avocado<\/a>.<\/p>\n Other salsas we recommend are the jicama, bean and corn salsa from this chicken street tacos<\/a> recipe, a peach-avocado salsa<\/a>, a mango-cucumber salsa<\/a>\u00a0or a peach-cucumber salsa<\/a>. Each salsa is refreshing and light, and perfect for a delicious chicken taco meal.<\/p>\n Yes, to make this recipe vegan, use vegan chicken-style strips (the unbreaded kind) and cook them according to package directions, then follow this recipe from the point of adding the water and seasonings. Tofu is another vegan chicken substitute that tastes delicious with the seasonings and salsa from this recipe.<\/p>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" This chicken taco recipe features a light, refreshing salsa made from avocados and corn.
