Recipe Tips

  • The chicken thigh can be used instead of the breast, but there isn’t a huge difference between the two. It just comes down to what you have available and the cut of chicken you prefer.
  • You can leave the taco seasoning out of the recipe, but it really does help add lots more flavor into the recipe.
  • The taco seasoning can be made at home if you don’t have any packet mixes. It’s super easy to do and might save you money not having to buy expensive pre-made mixes.
