spicy rotisserie chicken soft tacos
(1 RATING)
My wonderful husband was headed home from a long week of working out of town, and I neglected to take out something for dinner. I needed something quick and easy, but super delicious. So I threw this together and it was so good. We now cook it all the time. You can use any meat really. Left overs from the grill are perfect. I do warn you that if you follow the recipe it is very hot, but you can use mild ingedients if you don't like the spicy flavors.
