QUICK N' TASTY CHICKEN TACOS



Quick N' Tasty Chicken Tacos image

This is a tasty taco recipe developed to use cold, leftover chicken. Light and fresh-tasting. If you want a more traditional taco, you could heat up the chicken, but I like the chicken best at room temperature or slightly cool. This will make more salsa than you need for the tacos, but it's great with tortilla or pita crisps to snack on.

Categories     Lunch/Snacks

Time 15m

Yield 4 tacos, 2-4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 18

1 1/2 cups shredded cooked chicken (rotisserie chicken is very tasty in this)
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
1/2 teaspoon chili powder
1/2 teaspoon cumin
1/2 teaspoon oregano
1/2 cup pineapple, diced
1/2 cup cherry tomatoes or 1/2 cup grape tomatoes, chopped
1/3 cup seedless cucumber, minced
1/3 cup minced red onion
3 tablespoons chopped cilantro or 3 tablespoons parsley
1 1/2 tablespoons minced jalapeno peppers
1 1/2 tablespoons lemon juice
1 dash salt
1 dash hot sauce
4 taco shells
julienned lettuce
grated cheddar cheese or monterey jack cheese
sour cream

Steps:

  • Combine the chicken, lemon juice, chili powder, cumin and oregano in a small bowl.
  • Make sure the spices mix into all the chicken. Cover and place in refrigerator until ready to assemble your tacos.
  • Make Pineapple-Jalapeño Salsa: Combine all the salsa ingredients in a bowl.
  • Note: I cut the cherry tomatoes in half and give them a gentle squeeze to get rid of excess juice and seeds, then chop them up.
  • Assemble Tacos: Fill the taco shells with chicken and salsa. Top with your favourite taco fixings.
  • Lean over plate. Take a big bite. Doesn't that taste good?

CHICKEN KATSU TACOS RECIPE BY TASTY



Chicken Katsu Tacos Recipe by Tasty image

These chicken katsu tacos are easy to whip up in 30 minutes and are packed with flavor. You'll love the crispy chicken paired with the tangy Tonkatsu sauce and crunchy cabbage slaw.

Provided by Katie Aubin

Categories     Dinner

Time 30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 18

2 cups vegetable oil, for frying
4 boneless, skinless chicken thighs
1 ½ teaspoons kosher salt, plus more to taste
2 cups panko bread crumbs
3 large eggs, beaten
1 cup all purpose flour
¼ cup ketchup
2 teaspoons sugar
¼ cup worcestershire sauce
½ green cabbage, thinly sliced
½ cup mayonnaise
1 ½ tablespoons rice vinegar
½ teaspoon kosher salt, plus more to taste
8 small flour tortillas
sesame seed
scallion, thinly sliced
fresh cilantro leaf
Lime wedge

Steps:

  • Make the chicken: Fill a heavy-bottomed, high-sided skillet with about ½ inch (1 ¼ cm) of vegetable oil. Heat over medium heat until the oil reaches 350°F (180°C).
  • Place the chicken thighs on a cutting board and cover with plastic wrap. Pound the chicken with the flat side of a meat tenderizer until all of the thighs are between ¼ in (6 ml) and ⅓ inch (8 ml) thick.
  • On the cutting board, season the flattened chicken on both sides with the salt.
  • Add the panko, eggs, and flour to 3 separate shallow bowls.
  • Coat each piece of chicken in the flour, shaking off any excess, then in the egg, then in the panko. Gently press the panko into the chicken to ensure a thick, even coating.
  • Working in batches, carefully fry the chicken in the hot oil for about 2 minutes per side, until golden brown and cooked through. Set on paper towels to drain and immediately season lightly with salt.
  • Make the tonkatsu sauce: In a small bowl, mix together the ketchup, sugar, and Worcestershire sauce. Set aside.
  • Make the cabbage slaw: In a medium bowl, toss the cabbage, mayonnaise, vinegar, and salt until well coated. Season with additional salt if needed. Set aside.
  • Wrap the tortillas in a damp kitchen towel and microwave for 30 seconds.
  • Slice the chicken thighs into ⅓-inch (8 ml) thick pieces. Place about half of a thigh worth of meat onto a flour tortilla. Top with about ¼ cup (25 G) of cabbage slaw, a drizzle of tonkatsu sauce, sesame seeds, scallions, and cilantro. Repeat with remaining chicken to make 8 tacos total. Serve with lime wedges alongside.
  • Enjoy!
