Ingredients
Scale
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 medium onion (finely diced)
- 4 garlic cloves (minced)
- 2lbs ground chicken
- 1 tablespoon paprika
- 2 teaspoons chili powder
- 1 ½ teaspoon ground cumin

- ½ cup chopped fresh cilantro
- 12 taco shells

Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F. Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add onions and sauté until starting to brown (about 10 minutes). Add the garlic and cook for another minute.
- Add the chicken, paprika, chili powder, cumin, oregano, cayenne, and salt. Turn the heat to high and use a wooden spoon to stir and break up the chicken into small chunks until the chicken is partially cooked (about 5 minutes). Stir in tomato sauce, reduce heat to low and simmer, stirring occasionally for about 10-15 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through. Sprinkle with fresh cilantro.
- Lay the taco shells on to a baking sheet. Place into the oven and bake for 6-7 minutes or until crispy. Spoon the chicken into the shells and serve with toppings.
