Cinco de Mayo Loaded Chicken Tacos

Loaded Chicken Tacos

Chicken

*12 frozen Chicken Tenders (You could also use 12 Fresh chicken tenders cubed) cook in a heated skillet with extra light olive oil and add the following seasonings.

*

Note: Sprinkle the following Spices on the chicken in skillet and cover with lid and cook until chicken is fully cooked.

*1 teaspoon Deverle’s Seasoning or Season All, or to taste

*1 tablespoon dried Minced Onions

*2 teaspoon dried Minced Garlic

*1/4 teaspoon Red Pepper Flakes, or to taste

Cook the chicken in a Cast Iron skillet if using fresh and cube the chicken (I used a Stainless Steel skillet with lid because my chicken was frozen) with 2-3 Tablespoons Olive Oil. Cook the Chicken until browned about 15 to 20 minutes on medium heat until it is no longer pink inside or until the internal temperature is 165*F. Deglaze the pan with 2 to 3 tablespoons of water. Add center of your taco shells.

After Chicken is cooked I cut into chunks with scissors.

Serves 6 to 8 depending on portion size.
