Basic Chipotle Chicken Tacos

Recipesfull introduces to you: Chicken Breast Recipes. (Basic Chipotle Chicken Tacos). This is very basic. My husband isn't a fan of veggies in things, so if you add onions and peppers even better! It can get very spicy so this isn't a dish for bland food lovers - even the 'mild' ways to cook it have a bite.

Directions

Step 1

Place chicken in a resealable plastic bag; add chipotle peppers in adobo sauce and 1/2 of the beer. Squeeze out excess air and seal the bag. Marinate in the refrigerator at least 1 hour.

Step 2

Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat; pour chicken and marinade into the hot oil. Cook and stir adding the remaining beer until chicken is no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear 20 to 30 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).

Shred chicken in the skillet using 2 forks and serve in corn tortillas.
