I used to beg my mom for these; now I make them for my son. Serve with beans, tomatoes, lettuce, sour cream, salsa, and cheese.

Ingredients

  • 1 whole chicken
  • 1 can diced tomatoes with habanero peppers , 10 ounce
  • 1 green bell pepper , diced
  • 1 large onion , diced
  • 3 jalapenos chile peppers , seeded and diced
  • 2 packetss taco seasoning mix , 1 ounce
  • 2 tablespoons canola oil , or as needed
  • 1 package flour tortillas , 15 ounce

Instructions

  1. 1

    Place chicken, tomatoes with habanero peppers, green bell pepper, onion, jalapeno chile peppers, and 1 packet taco seasoning in a large pot; pour in enough water to just cover chicken.

  2. 2

    Bring chicken and vegetables to a boil, reduce heat to low, and simmer until chicken is no longer pink inside, about 1 1/2 hours. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the thigh, near the bone, should read 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).

  3. 3

    Remove chicken from the pot and let cool. Pull chicken meat off the bones and cut into bite-sized pieces; discard carcass. Pour off about half the liquid from the pot, making sure all the vegetables stay. Return chicken meat to pot; add the remaining 1 packet taco seasoning. Simmer until flavors have blended, about 10 minutes.

  4. 4

    Heat canola oil in a large skillet over medium heat; fry tortillas, working in batches, in the hot oil until desired crispness is reached, 1 to 2 minutes per side. Spoon chicken mixture into each tortilla to serve.
