Make With
Old El Paso

Steps

  • 1
    In 10-inch stainless steel or cast iron skillet, heat 2 tablespoons vegetable oil over medium-high heat until oil is hot. Add chicken and cook 2 minutes on each side to brown chicken. Add 2 tablespoons water, sprinkle both sides of chicken with taco seasoning, and loosely cover skillet with foil or lid. Cook an additional 3 minutes, flipping chicken if necessary.

    While chicken is cooking in skillet, warm taco shells and gather toppings. Remove cooked chicken from skillet and thinly slice. Fill tortillas with chicken, chiles, avocado and sour cream

Tips from the Pillsbury Kitchens

  • tip 1
    Add diced fresh tomatoes.
  • tip 2
    Adding a little water during cooking keeps the chicken extra moist and keeps the pan and chicken from burning; don't be afraid of using medium-high to high heat; it will add a nice sear to the chicken breasts to lock in the flavor and help to get dinner on the table in ten minutes flat.
