MANGO-LIME SHREDDED CHICKEN TACOS

Mango-Lime Shredded Chicken Tacos image

I put a little spin on a family favorite. While this chicken filling is simmering I fry my corn tortillas until they are nice and crispy! If you like sweet and spicy together, this is a great dinner idea! Fill shells with chicken, lettuce, tomato, fresh cilantro, and your choice of hot sauce. Enjoy!
