Preparation

  1. Toss chicken thighs in Taco Spice Mix to coat.

Cook chicken for 3 minutes, each side or until golden brown. Add orange juice and water, simmer gently, covered (lid or foil) for 45 minutes or until very tender. Allow to cool for 5 minutes in poaching liquid before removing and shredding with 2 forks.
  2. Combine tomatoes, jalapeño, coriander and lime juice to create a fresh salsa.
  3. For warm Tortillas: Remove tortillas from pack and divide into 2 stacks. Microwave: on HIGH/1100 watts/100% power for 20 seconds* Oven: wrap in foil & heat in a pre-heated oven at 180˚C conventional (160˚C fan forced) for 7 minutes. DO NOT HEAT TORTILLAS IN THE PLASTIC PACKAGE *Times may vary depending on microwave wattage.
  4. Build your own Soft Tacos with Stand ‘n Stuff™ Tortillas, shredded chicken, Jalapeno & tomato salsa, mashed avocado, cos lettuce and Taco Sauce.
