Sure, here’s a simple recipe for baked chicken tacos:
Ingredients:
- 1 lb boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into small pieces
- 1 packet (about 1.25 oz) taco seasoning mix
- 1 can (14.5 oz) diced tomatoes with green chilies, drained
- 1 cup shredded cheese (such as cheddar or Mexican blend)
- 8 small flour or corn tortillas
- Optional toppings: diced tomatoes, shredded lettuce, diced onions, sour cream, salsa, avocado slices, cilantro, lime wedges

- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a baking dish lightly with cooking spray or oil.
- In a large bowl, toss the diced chicken pieces with the taco seasoning mix until evenly coated.
- Spread the seasoned chicken evenly in the greased baking dish.
- Sprinkle the drained diced tomatoes with green chilies over the chicken.
- Bake in the preheated oven for about 20-25 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and no longer pink in the center.
- While the chicken is baking, warm the tortillas according to package instructions. You can wrap them in foil and warm them in the oven for a few minutes, or heat them individually in a skillet over medium heat.

- Return the baking dish to the oven and bake for an additional 5-7 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
- Remove the baking dish from the oven and let it cool slightly.
