This simple recipe is inspired by the frozen crispy chicken tacos my husband brought home from Costco after sampling them at the big box store.
He’s a big Jack-in-the-Box and Taco Bell taco fan, so he loved these crispy 3-4 bite tacos for quick lunches, and always with loads of hot sauce.
By using a few store-bought shortcuts like rotisserie chicken and bottled taco sauce, you can have these crunchy, cheesy tacos on the table in 30 minutes flat!
There’s really not much to them, so I made my own version with shredded rotisserie chicken meat (from Costco, of course), hot tomato sauce (El Pato is our fave), fresh cilantro, a little cumin, and melty Mexican cheese.
And what do you know? He liked mine even better.
The corn tortillas get extra crispy and flavorful in the oven, and there’s more filling and cheese than in the store-bought ones.
Plus, I like them better because I know what’s in them! And so will you.
Enjoy!
