SHREDDED CHICKEN STREET TACOS
SHREDDED CHICKEN STREET TACOS
(Inside: I have this rockin’ recipe for Shredded Chicken Street Tacos that I’ve just been sitting on. So, I decided to try it. Oh, my, oh, my. It was perfection.)
Look, I’m freakin’ hungry. So, let’s get down to business, shall we?
I am in a Mexican Street Food mood. No, really.
Yeah, I hear ya.
No reason to make Shredded Chicken Street Tacos at home when you have a food truck that will whip some amazing ones up just down the street. Right?
Except that I was about an hour from home when I found my magic-burrito food truck and, frankly, I’d rather whip-up my own than drive an hour each way just for a yummy burrito.
No matter how yummy it was. Heh.
I’ll be making my tacos at home, thank you.
While I’m at it, I might make some Steak Street Tacos or just plain ‘ole Mexican Street Tacos.

- 1½ tspn paprika
- 1½ tspn cumin
- 1 1/2 tspn chipotle
- 1/2 tspn cayenne
- 1 teaspoon salt

Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
- Wash chicken thighs and slice into tenders and place in a bowl. Set aside.
- Combine paprika, cumin, salt, pepper, cayenne, and chipotle.
- Mix spices with olive oil, onions and garlic.
- Pour spice/oil mixture over the chicken tenders and mix together thoroughly,
- Spread on a baking sheet in a single layer.
- Place chicken in the oven for 20 to 25 minutes, or until completely cooked.
- Remove chicken from oven, and place in a large bowl.
- Using a hand mixer, shred chicken (this actually works).
- Warm tortillas in a hot skillet for a few seconds on each side, until they kind of bubble up and are hot.
- Fill each tortilla (FYI--I like to layer my tortillas 2-3, because then they don't fall apart) with chicken, a small amount of lettuce, onions, avocado, jalapenos, and a squeeze of lime.
