EASY CHICKEN TACOS

Steps:

• Dice chicken into small pieces, remember you will want this to be small enough to be taco filling so cut the chicken into roughly ½-¾ inch (1½ cm) cubes, don't stress if they aren't all exact. Transfer the cut chicken to a bowl. Add the taco seasoning and mix to coat the chicken.
• Let the chicken rest for a few minutes while you bring a large pan to medium-high heat. Once hot lightly grease the pan. Add the chicken.
• Cook the chicken 5 to 7 minutes, Stirring the chicken around every couple minutes. Chicken is done when an internal temperate reaches 165ºF and juices run clear. Remove from heat and let rest 3 to 5 minutes. Use as your filling in tortillas topped with your favorite garnishes.

EASY SHREDDED CHICKEN TACOS

Steps:

• Mix water and taco seasoning in a large bowl. Add tomato sauce, vinegar, garlic, oregano, cumin, and sugar; mix well.
• Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add chicken and cook until golden brown, about 5 minutes per side. Add tomato sauce mixture and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer until chicken is no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, about 20 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
• Remove chicken breasts from the pan and shred meat with 2 forks when cool enough to handle. Return shredded chicken to the pan with the tomato sauce. Cook and stir until chicken is coated with sauce and sauce reduces a bit, about 5 minutes.
• Transfer chicken and sauce to a serving bowl and spoon onto taco shells.
