Air Fryer Chicken Tacos Dorados

Chicken tacos dorados are one of my favorite Mexican dishes, but since they're usually very greasy, I rarely get to eat them. So I decided to improvise a lighter recipe, and they turned out great. I used low-carb and low-fat ingredients, but you can also make them with corn tortillas and regular sour cream.

Chicken tacos dorados are one of my favorite Mexican dishes, but since they're usually very greasy, I rarely get to eat them. So I decided to improvise a lighter recipe, and they turned out great.

Cooking Instructions
- 1
Prepare the ingredients. Since nopal tortillas are small, I used 5, but if you use corn tortillas, just use 3. Preheat the air fryer to 350°F (175°C). Warm the tortillas to soften them, then fill each with shredded chicken.
- 2
Secure the tacos with toothpicks, joining them in pairs or threes if you like. Place them on the air fryer rack and lightly spray with nonstick cooking spray. Air fry for 5 minutes, then remove the toothpicks, separate the tacos, and flip them over.
- 3
Return to the air fryer for another 5 minutes until golden and crispy. Place on a plate and top with shredded lettuce.
- 4
Spoon sour cream over the tacos, then add green tomato salsa to taste. You can sprinkle shredded cheese on top if you like—I didn't because I can't have it. Enjoy!

Easy chicken tacos Easy chicken tacos
I love to cook! I get creative in the kitchen all the time combining both my Spanish and Louisiana roots. I also cook the old recipes that were passed down from mother to daughter going from one generation to the next. I hope you enjoy my chicken breast tacos. The great thing about the way the chicken is prepared here is that you can add the chicken to create another dish of your own. Please add more salt, minced serono pepper, Tony's, Louisiana hot sauce, extra cumin, or whatever you like. My family loves this dish! Terridtoo -

Vegetarian Chicken Tacos Vegetarian Chicken Tacos
When I was a kid, my stepmom used to make these tasty chicken tacos that my family was completely obsessed with, couldn't get enough of, can't eat just one kind of taco. Now, several years later and that stepmom long gone, I decided to try and make a version of those same old tacos that my vegetarian/pescatarian husband could try. I'm happy to say he loves them! candace.norred
