• Ready In: 33mins
• Ingredients: 11
• Serves: 6

ingredients

• 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
• 1 garlic clove, minced
• 1 tablespoon chili powder
• 2 teaspoons cumin
• 1 teaspoon paprika
• 1⁄2 teaspoon onion powder
• 1⁄2 teaspoon kosher salt
• 1⁄4 teaspoon ground black pepper
• 4 cups rotisserie chicken (shredded, discard skin)
• 1⁄2 cup salsa
• 10 -12 tortillas, warmed

directions

1. In a large heavy bottom saucepan, heat the olive oil over medium-low heat. Add the garlic and cook for 1 minute, then add the chili powder, cumin, paprika, onion powder, salt and pepper, stirring to combine.
2. Add the chicken and stir to coat with the spice mixture. If needed, add 2-3 tablespoons of water to help distribute everything evenly. Remove from the heat and stir in the salsa.
3. Serve tacos on warm tortillas with your favorite toppings! I highly recommend adding a spritz of fresh squeezed lime juice at the end.
4. Optional Toppings: avocado, cilantro, white onions, red onions, shredded red or green cabbage, fresh squeezed lime juice, jalapenos (the site won't let me put this in ingredients).
