Spicy Chicken Tacos

Tonight I am making chicken tacos, an easy mid-week meal. How you dress up your taco is up to you, but I'm going to show you how I go about preparing the chicken for tacos.

Chicken Tacos Makes 8 Tacos

2 Chicken Breasts (boneless/skinless)
1 Bay Leaf
1 Small Onion - Quartered
Chicken Stock
Taco Seasoning Mix

In a sauce pan place your chicken breasts and cover with stock, toss in the bay leaf and onion. Bring to a boil and cook until the chicken can easily be pulled apart with forks. Place the pulled chicken in a saute pan, sprinkle liberally with your favorite taco seasoning mix (for my recipe for taco seasoning click on the link in the ingredients) and add 1/4C of the broth you cooked the chicken in to the pan. Stir until well incorporated and sauce has thickened.

I like to serve my tacos with sauteed onions, salsa, guacamole and some sour cream; but feel free to add your own favorite taco ingredients such as: chopped tomatoes, lettuce and cheese.
