Chicken Taco's Recipe

I am not trying to be dramatic, but when my youngest sons were small and you'd ask them what was for dinner, they would always want tacos-which were never my favorite.  I guess because I just was never really crazy about ground beef.  But since starting my weight loss journey for the 100th time, I realized I could use other ground meat like turkey or chicken (which is what I prefer).  Now, I am wanting to have tacos all week long like the boys did.  I finally get it.  Ok, well I am not one of those bloggers that just go on and on about stuff before we get to the recipe.  So here goes.

What you'll need:

1 pound of lean ground chicken
1/2 yellow or white onion, chopped
1/2 red bell pepper, chopped
1/2 orange or green bell pepper, chopped
1 can of salsa verde
1/2 package of low-sodium taco seasoning (or use your own blend)
(1 tsp of each: onion powder, garlic powder, cumin, salt & pepper)
Pam

What you'll do:

Spray your skillet with some oil (3-4 sprays), and add in your peppers and onions plus seasonings.  Season with your heart, you can add more or less of really whatever you want.  Once the veggies are tender, make a center and add in your meat and season your meat as well.  Chicken doesn't have much flavor - so go crazy.  Keep an eye on your meat, and keep chopping until well crumbled.  Once the meat is cooked, 5-7 mins-add in the can of salsa verde and simmer on low until thickened.

Heat your corn street tacos in a separate skillet until browned up a little.  And assemble.  At this point, you can eat them however you like, adding lettuce, avocado, sour cream, or cheese-whatever your taco-eating mind can come up with.


I did not create this recipe, you can find a version of this all over TikTok, YouTube or online.  I have four of these at a time, and without the toppings it is 3 Weight Watcher Points :)
