Rotisserie Chicken Tacos

These paleo-friendly tacos come together quickly by using rotisserie chicken for the filling. Adding some extra seasonings gives the chicken great TexMex flavor. The previous version of this meal from 2020 was a Latin-inspired soup, so check that out too, if you like!

Make

  1. Heat oven to 400F / 204C.

  2. Toss broccoli with oil (portion for broccoli), cumin (portion for broccoli), and some salt and pepper and spread out onto a sheet pan. Transfer to the oven and roast until tender and browned in spots, 18 to 22 minutes, shaking the pan halfway through cooking.

  3. While broccoli roasts, heat a skillet with cooking oil (portion for tacos) over medium heat. Add chicken (remember to reserve half for Wednesday) and saute, stirring occasionally, until heated through, 2 to 3 minutes. Stir in cumin (portion for tacos), chili powder, garlic powder, and salsa to skillet and toss everything together. Continue to saute for 2 to 3 minutes more to let the flavors come together. Remove from heat and stir in lime juice. Taste and season with some salt and pepper, if needed.

  4. Squeeze lemon juice over broccoli.

  5. Warm wraps according to package directions.

  6. Assemble tacos by filling wraps with chicken, lettuce, avocados, and cilantro.
