Chipotle Chicken Tacos
Chipotle Chicken Tacos At Home! We’ve been on a mission lately to do less last-minute takeout dinners.And turns out — making really great Chipotle-style chicken tacos at home is so much easier than you’d think.(And of course, a fraction of the cost.) ♡ The smoky chipotle marinade comes together in a blender in about 2 minutes, the cook time is under 15 minutes, and the ingredient list is simple and easy to customize to your liking.
(For example, my young boys are still warming up to heat, so I’ll dial the chipotle pepper back a bit when making this for them.) From there, just tuck that juicy, charred chicken into warm corn tortillas with a sprinkle of onion, cilantro, a squeeze of lime, and whatever toppings you love best — and you’ve got street-style tacos that (I’d argue!) are every bit as good as anything you can order out.Let’s make some chicken tacos! A Few Tips Before You Start Here are a few quick tips to take this recipe from good to Chipotle-level great: Double up your tortillas.Stack two small corn tortillas per taco.
This is how authentic street tacos are served, and it prevents leaks when things get saucy.Warm your tortillas properly.Don’t skip this step! A quick char directly over a gas flame or on the grill makes a huge difference — you want them soft and a little blistered, not cold and stiff out of the bag.
Let the chicken rest before chopping.I know it’s hard to wait, but 8 to 10 minutes on the cut
