Provided by Becky Hardin - The Cookie Rookie

Categories     Main Course

Time 25m

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 tablespoon olive oil
1/2 pound cooked chicken (shredded (I used cooked Rotisserie chicken))
1 ounce Taco Seasoning (click for homemade recipe!)
1/2 cup onion (diced)
1 can diced tomato (14.5 ounce, fully drained)
1 can Chopped Green Chiles (4.5 ounce, fully drained)
10 Stand and Stuff Taco Shells (I used Old El Paso)
8 ounces Refried Beans (1/2 can)
2 cups Mexican Blend Cheese (shredded)
Toppings such as Old El Paso sliced Jalapenos, sour cream, salsa, chopped cilantro, shredded lettuce, or any of your favorite taco toppings!

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400F. Spray a 9x13 baking dish with nonstick spray.
  • Heat olive oil over medium heat in a medium skillet.
  • Add onion to skillet and cook for 2-3 minutes, or until the onion is translucent and fragrant.
  • Stir in the chicken, taco seasoning, tomatoes (FULLY DRAINED), and green chiles (FULLY DRAINED) *see note. Stir to combine fully. Reduce to simmer and allow to cook for 5-8 minutes.
  • Place the taco shells in the baking dish, standing up. I was able to fit 10 taco shells in the dish by adding 2 on each side.
  • Bake the taco shells for 5 minutes by themselves to allow them to crisp up. Remove from the oven.
  • Spoon 1 tablespoon of beans into the bottom of each taco shell. Top with the chicken mixture, almost to the top of each shell.
  • Sprinkle each shell generously with shredded cheese, the more the better!
  • Bake for 7-10 minutes or until cheese is fully melted and the edges of the shells are browned.
  • Remove from the oven and top with your favorite items such as jalapenos, sour cream, cilantro, and salsa.
  • Enjoy!

BECKY'S CHICKEN TACOS



Becky's Chicken Tacos image

My favorite chicken taco meat recipe that I got from a coworker. I usually serve these with flour tortillas, cheddar cheese, and some guacamole. Great for a get together, as you can cook before hand and have people assemble their own. I also love to snack on this cold. Can easily be scaled up or down depending on how many people you are serving.
