Recipe | Michelle's Chicken Taco Filling

I've never done a recipe post before! Why not? I have no idea. But tonight I'm going to give you one heck of an easy recipe that is sure to please. I used to use ground turkey because, well, it was all the rage about 15 years ago. Then I realized I had to doctor it up a bit with some cider vinegar or beer or something because I just wasn't digging the taste of turkey. A few years back I gave the ground chicken a try and I was completely sold. Better flavor, better texture (does anyone else find ground turkey to be squeaky as you chew?).

So, here it is, my recipe for Chicken Taco Filling, which I find works for a variety of Mexican-like food meals. Oh, and I say this makes enough for 4 people, but in all honesty, I could practically eat the whole thing by myself. So, I guess what I'm saying, besides that I have a hearty appetite for spicy yummy food is, you may want to double it. Leftovers are even better after the spices have had a chance to really sink in.

Want to extend it even further? Add a can of black beans, rinsed and drained to the mix before adding the water.

I even typed it out and created a downloadable .pdf which measures 4x6- just right for a recipe box.

Squeaky? Too funny. I'll probably never be able to eat ground turkey again...

The pdf...wow! I don't think anyone else has gone to that trouble before. You rock.

You know, I have no idea why I haven't tried ground chicken ever yet. We've been a ground turkey. I'm going to mix it up now.

I'm a vegetarian but I often cook chicken for Mr Meringue. I reckon he's going to love this recipe! Thanks.

Great recipe. I'm sure I'll try it out.

Fresh green beans are too squeaky for me, like styrofoam!! Ack.

I too can't stand ground turkey - won't eat it! Ground chicken is so much better. Thanks for the recipe - I love how you did it on a recipe card - very clever!!

thank you for the great meal idea. Yesterday I didn't have a clue what to make for dinner, read your blog printed off the recipie, went to the shops bought the food, made the dinner and everybody cleaned their plates and were looking for more!. So it was very popular indeed in our house:)
