More About This Recipe
-
For a cool hot-weather meal, try these easy tacos made with guacamole and chilled chicken.
I don’t know if you guys have been outside recently, but man, it’s hot!
How hot is it?
It’s soooo hot, that some nights I don’t even want to turn on the microwave! I mean, you know it’s getting hot when the oven becomes out of the question, the stovetop is next to go, but when even the microwave is off limits, that’s when things have gotten really unbearable.
These Easy Guacamole Chicken Tacos are a quick and easy alternative to cooking that don’t require any heating up, and are even served cooled to help you beat the heat.
The trick is mixing a store-bought rotisserie chicken with guacamole as the base of the tacos. It’s like a fun twist on chicken salad! Top with some salsa and cooling sour cream and you have really delicious tacos on the table quick with no heat necessary!
Pull the rotisserie chicken when you get home from the store and get it into the fridge. This helps it cool down quick.
Tonight I made a quick guac, but store bought works fine for this recipe. If you want to make your own, here are some great guac recipes for you.
The chicken all mixed together.
Everything ready to go.
Cool, refreshing, and delicious!
And easy!
