Instructions
Preparation Steps
- Prepare all the toppings that you would like for your rotisserie chicken tacos.
- Make the recipe for Cheese Taco Shells or use a store-bought keto friendly taco shell or a corn taco shell if you’re not following the low carb diet.
Cooking Steps
- In a medium sized skillet over medium heat, add the olive oil and heat until it shimmers.
- Add the shredded rotisserie chicken to the skillet, along with the remaining spices.
- Mix together with either a silicone spatula or silicone covered tongs until the chicken is heated through (about 5 minutes).
- Remove from the heat and set aside.
Assembly Steps
- I use a taco holder (it holds 3 tacos) to assemble the tacos at my house. Place three taco shells of your choice in the holder (or make each taco individually if you don’t have a holder) and add approximately ¼ cup of the seasoned rotisserie chicken.
- Add your favorite toppings that you have prepared and give a nice squeeze of lime after everything has been assembled.
- Chow down on the rotisserie chicken tacos immediately, and then go back for seconds!
