Instructions
MAKE THE HOMEMADE TACO SEASONING
- Add the chili powder, salt, garlic powder, onion powder, cumin and black pepper to a small bowl, stir to combine.
BROWN THE CHICKEN
- Heat the oil in a large, non-stick skillet over medium heat. When the oil is hot, but not smoking, add the chicken. Cook for about 3 minutes per side.
- Remove the chicken from the skillet and set on a plate or pan. Don’t worry that it’s not cooked all the way through; it will finish cooking in the sauce.
MAKE THE TACO SAUCE
- Do not wash the skillet.
- Set the skillet back over medium heat. Add the tomato sauce, water and prepared seasoning mix, stir well to combine.
- When the sauce comes to a simmer return the chicken to the skillet. Lower the heat to medium-low, cover and cook for 15-20 minutes.
- Keep the sauce at a simmer. Turn the chicken about half way through the cooking time, and stir occasionally.
- Make sure the chicken is at least 165°F at the thickest part.
- Remove the chicken from the skillet and continue cooking the sauce, covered on low heat. It should be barely at a simmer.
SHRED THE CHICKEN
- Place the chicken on a cutting board or pan and shred using two forks.
- Return the chicken to the skillet and cook a few minutes until warmed through and most of the sauce is absorbed. Stir occasionally.
- Serve the shredded chicken with tortillas or hard taco shells and your favorite taco fixings.

We would have preferred corn tortillas not flour and there’s no cheese
