Make ground chicken taco meat 1. Heat a vegetable oil in a medium skillet over medium high heat, add ground chicken, taco seasoning, onion and garlic.
Cook stirring constantly (trying to break up the chicken), until cooked (7 to 9 minutes). Add salsa and sugar, increase heat to high and cook (stirring occasionally), until all moisture evaporates.
(While chicken is cooking, warm tortillas and prep other ingredients)
Assemble chicken tacos Spoon cooked chicken meat on each warmed tortilla and top with lettuce, cheese, avocado, sour cream, jalapeno and cilantro. Fold and enjoy.
To warm Tortillas You can use any of the following methods:
In a skillet - Place tortilla in a hot skillet, for about 15 to 30 seconds on each side. You want to look for few browned or darkened spots on both sides. Keep them warm wrapped in a clean kitchen towel.
Over open flame - Turn your gas burner to medium-low and using tongs, place tortilla, one at a time, directly over the flame. As soon as it starts to brown, give a quick flip to color the other side and then take off heat and keep them warm wrapped in a clean kitchen towel.
