These easy soft chicken tacos are perfect for an easy weeknight meal and they are packed full of flavor. The chicken is perfectly juicy and it hardly takes any time to prep!
Lightly coat chicken in olive oil and sprinkle with your seasoning of choice.
Bake 20 minutes, remove from oven and allow to rest 5-10 minutes (it will continue cooking) before slicing, cubing or shredding.
Fill the corn tortillas with shredded or cubed baked chicken breast, avocado, chihuaha cheese, crema and salsa verde and serve.
Notes
Tips
Do not to overcook the chicken breasts or they can become dry. Boneless skinless chicken breasts are lower in saturated fat than other meats, so watch your time so they don’t dry out! The chicken is done when it reaches an internal temperature of 165ºF.
Substitutions – I like to use chicken breasts in this recipe, but if you prefer to use chicken thighs you absolutely can! You can also use your favorite salsa and substitute sour cream for crema.
