Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 tablespoon vegetable oil
1 lb ground chicken
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon ground cumin
12 taco shells
3 ounces chorizo sausages, chopped
3 scallions, chopped
salt & freshly ground black pepper, to taste
2 tomatoes, chopped
1/2 head iceberg lettuce, shredded
2 cups grated cheddar cheese
salsa

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F.
  • Heat oil in a nonstick frying pan.
  • Add the chicken, salt and cumin and fry over a medium heat until the chicken is cooked through, 5 to 8 minutes; stir frequently to prevent large lumps from forming.
  • Meanwhile, arrange the taco shells in one layer on a large baking sheet and heat in the oven for about 8 to 10 minutes, or according to package directions.
  • Add the chorizo and the scallions to the chicken mixture and stir to combine; cook until just warmed through, stirring occasionally.
  • Add salt and freshly ground black pepper if desired, to taste.
  • To assemble the tacos, place 1 to 2 spoonfuls of the chicken mixture in the bottom of a warm taco shell.
  • Top with a generous sprinkle of chopped tomato, shredded iceberg and grated Cheddar cheese.
  • Serve with tomato salsa and enjoy!
