Tiny Tacos Recipes

MINI CHICKEN TACOS RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375˚F (190˚C).
• Generously brush butter onto both sides of the tortillas.
• Using a circular cookie cutter or a mason jar lid, cut the tortillas into small circles.
• Flip a 12-cup muffin tin over and place a cut-out piece of tortilla in the space between two cups, so that they make a mini taco shape. One muffin tin will fit 17 mini tacos.
• Bake for 5-8 minutes, or until just turning golden brown and crispy. (Times and temperatures may vary based on oven.) Make sure to check on them every couple of minutes to make sure they don't burn.
• Shred a rotisserie chicken, removing all bones and skin.
• Place shredded chicken in a large pan over medium-high heat and add salsa. Stir well to combine.
• Serve along with your favorite taco toppings.
• Enjoy!

MINI TACO BITES

Steps:

• Gather the ingredients.
• Preheat oven to 350 F. Make pico de gallo: combine tomato, onion, jalapeño, garlic, cilantro, and lime juice. Season with salt and pepper and stir.
• Use a 3-inch cookie cutter to cut out 4 small taco shells from each tortilla. Save the scraps and toast them for a crispy garnish for salads or soups . Warm the tortillas for 10 to 20 seconds, covered, in a microwave, or wrap in foil and heat in a warm oven until pliable.
• Brush both sides of each tiny tortilla using 2 teaspoons of oil and sprinkle with salt, keeping them covered and warm in between. Press into openings of a mini muffin tin. Repeat with 11 more little tortillas, lightly reheating if needed to keep them pliable.
• Repeat with a second mini muffin tin or repeat after cooking first batch of mini taco shells, for a total of 24.
• Bake for 10 to 12 minutes or until lightly browned.
• Meanwhile, heat a large skillet over medium heat. Add 1 teaspoon of oil followed by ground beef . Cook, breaking up into small pieces, until no longer pink. Use a spoon to scoop out any excess oil.
• Add picante sauce, chili powder, and cumin. Season with salt and pepper and stir. Simmer for about 5 to 10 minutes, or until no longer watery. Taste for seasoning.
• Add a heaping spoonful of beef mixture to each tortilla shell, followed by a dollop of crema, a scoop of homemade pico de gallo, and a sprig of cilantro.
