Ingredients
For the Chicken:
- 1½ lbs boneless, skinless chicken thighs or breasts
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 2 tbsp Chef Paddy’s Let’s Taco ’Bout It
- 1 tsp smoked paprika
- 1 tbsp lime juice
- 1 tbsp W Sauce
- Salt, to taste
To Serve:
- 6–8 small corn tortillas, toasted or charred
- Diced white onion
- Chopped cilantro
- Lime wedges
- Hot sauce or salsa (optional)
Instructions
- Season the Chicken: In a bowl, toss chicken with olive oil, Let’s Taco ’Bout It , smoked paprika, lime juice, W Sauce, and salt.
- Cook: Heat a cast iron or nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Sear chicken 4–5 minutes per side until cooked through and lightly charred.
- Rest & Slice: Let rest 5 minutes, then chop or slice into bite-sized strips.
- Warm the Tortillas: Toast tortillas over an open flame or in a hot pan until lightly charred.
- Assemble: Fill each tortilla with chicken, onion, cilantro, and a squeeze of lime. Add salsa or hot sauce if you’re feeling it.
Chef Paddy’s Tips
- Thighs = juicy flavor: Go for thighs if you want that extra tenderness and boldness.
- Let the blend work: Let’s Taco ’Bout It already brings the cumin, chili, and depth—no need to overbuild it.
- Make it ahead: Marinate the chicken in the morning and sear it when you get home—fast and flavorful.
- Turn it into a tray: Serve with rice, beans, and slaw for a full street taco spread.
Let’s cook with heart and hustle.
