STEPS

Taco seasoning mix – Add all of the seasoning to a bowl or jar big enough and mix well. Season the chicken thighs with the homemade taco seasoning.

STEPS

Habanero Salsa – Add vegetable oil to a large skillet over medium high heat. Cook the onions until softened. Add the diced canned tomatoes, habanero and jalapeno. Cook. Add sugar if the tomatoes are too bitter. Add the lime juice, salt and pepper for taste.

STEPS

Chicken – Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Add vegetable oil to a large skillet over medium high heat. Once the skillet is hot add the Season chicken thighs. Cook until done. Add the cooked chicken into a medium sized bowl. With two forks shred the chicken. Add more homemade taco seasoning to the chicken if needed.

STEPS

– Lightly spray the baking sheet with vegetable oil.  Place the soft tacos on the baking sheet ( I was only able to fit 3 tacos on my baking sheet) Spray a tiny bit of vegetable oil on top of each soft taco.

STEPS

– Add your choice of shredded cheeses. I use monterrey jack cheese and Mexican mixed cheeses.  Add the chicken then add more cheese. Place the baking sheet into the oven and cook. You want the tacos to have soft crunch. Don't leave the tacos in the oven too long. Add the homemade salsa and fresh grape tomatoes and lettuce.  Serve immediately.

READY

Enjoy!

So good!
