Chicken Street Tacos are oven baked delicious tacos that are filled with a chicken and bean mixture that’s perfectly seasoned with out of this world flavor. These tacos are the perfect thing to prep once and eat all week because they reheat wonderfully and also freeze too!
Hey September Second- you’re lookin’ good! Today, I’m going to share with you one of my favorite recipes in the history of recipes. These Chicken Street Tacos came together by accident and my goodness, It’s probably one of the happiest accidents that I’ve had in the kitchen to date.
It’s time for Fall. It’s 62 degrees outside right now. The windows are open. Pepper is wearing the cutest little button down jean shirt and leggings. And here I am, in my pajamas still. Mom-life at its best. Pepper will forever be better dressed than me, but I’m okay with that. I clean up alright when I get the chance. Eric even told me I was just as beautiful as the combine we saw on the road this past weekend… Okay, he said more beautiful. But, I’m being compared to a big, green combine .. so, whats the difference?
I’ve been dutifully in the kitchen whipping up some comfort classics like Mom’s Chicken and Rice, stove top fried apples, the best chili ever, and our favorite chicken and dumplings!
A little about Chicken Street Tacos:
What’s the different between street tacos and tacos?
I don’t know. I have no idea. Please don’t ask me again.
Here’s my take on Chicken Street Tacos. They may not be super authentic, but I do what I want in my kitchen. This recipe makes a MESS of tacos. I don’t mean mess as in they are messy, I mean mess, as in they make like 500 tacos (not really, but close). They are quick, delicious, filling, mess-free, not a ham and cheese sandwich, and they also reheat super great! I love’m more than just about anything except for Pepper, and Eric, and my mom, sister.. dad.. nieces and nephews.. dogs.. my fuzzy blanket, our couch, christmas, okay I love them a lot, but not more than some stuff.
Let’s get in the kitchen and make some Chicken Street Tacos:
Grab your Chicken Street Taco goodies! Taco seasoning, fresh cilantro, refried beans, corn tortillas, salsa, chopped onions, tortillas, and shredded chicken breast. If you’re wondering, yes! You can use chicken thighs in this recipe too.
Also some toppings! I like to keep’m simple I do lettuce, diced tomatoes, Queso Fresco, guacamole, or a yummy cabbage slaw like the slaw in my Crispy Fish Taco recipe.
I love to use the Mission Extra Thin Tortillas to keep my WW points lower, but you can use whatever corn tortillas your heart desires!
These also work great with flour tortillas!
Grab a large skillet and lightly spray with a bit of cooking spray. Throw in shredded chicken, cilantro, onions, and taco seasoning. Stir it all up over medium heat until the onions are a bit soft.
Quick homemade taco seasoning recipe (equal to one packet): 1 teaspoon onion powder, 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder, 1 teaspoon chili powder, 1 teaspoon salt (i use kosher salt), 1/2 teaspoon oregano, 1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika, 2 teaspoon ground cumin, 1/8 tsp cayenne pepper (more or less depending on spice preference), and about 1/8 teaspoon black pepper. Stir them all together and set aside. If you’d rather use a good ol’ packet of taco seasoning or your own blend of taco spices that will work too!
Next up throw in a can of the non fat refried beans. I know you’re like how is this going to be good? Trust me. It is.
Add the greek yogurt and salsa. Stir until combined well. Stay with me, y’all. It’s good. Give it a lil taste and add some salt if ya need it. Set this aside.
Next up, grab another skillet, lightly spray with cooking spray, and then plop a tortilla on it. Lightly spray the top of tortillas with cooking spray and flip after about 30 seconds. These only need to be lightly warmed because they will get a nice crunch when we pop them in the oven later on. Repeat this until you’re out of tortillas.
Every four-five tortillas I would stop and fill the tortillas up with the chicken and bean mixture. You can do it after every one that you fry, or cook a few and then fill. It’s up to you.
Once they’re folded up- line them on a extra large sheet pan or two smaller sheet pans and pop into a 425 degree oven for about 8 minutes or until golden brown and they are hard to touch.
When they’re done you’ll have the ultra delicious crispy little tacos that are a blank canvas for so many goodies! You can pull’em open just a bit and stuff them like an American style taco (lettuce/sour cream/tomatoes/cheese), do more Mexican Style (lots o fresh cilantro/crumbled queso fresco/onion/pico de gallo), or do a mix of both!
Use some lime juice, garlic powder, and avocado to make a quick avocado mash then pile that on taco too. So good!
How to store & reheat Chicken Street Tacos:
Wrap tacos in foil to prevent them sogging up, yep “sogging up” is a technical term. I wrapped three at a time then placed in a freezer safe bag. When I went to reheat, I took them out of the foil and laid flat on a cookie sheet in a 400 degree oven for about 10-12 minutes. These also reheat great in the Air Fryer 365 for about 6 minutes flipping half way through should do it.
You could easily halve this recipe, but I really like having lots of tacos to eat throughout the week plus you can freeze for a rainy day! These also makes the best football food! Make a mess of tacos and throw the toppings in small bowls and let people dig in.
I’m currently obsessing over the Creamy Taco Truck Green Salsa from In Krista’s Kitchen! You can see it on the side of the picture above. Just POUR IT ALL OVER THESE TACOS!
If you’re a long time reader you might notice the photos above got a glow up, but can’t forget my roots y’all. This picture here is from the original post back when I first started blogging. These tacos were one of the firsts. I literally just wrapped up these tacos and walked around in our driveway out on the farm back in Illinois. So much has changed since I did this, but one things for sure, whether your photos are perfectly executed or you go outside and take a cell phone photo when it’s almost dark out while you walk down a gravel road. Doesn’t matter. They’re good either way! Haha
Now go make these!
Xo-Star
Ingredients
- 21 extra thin corn tortillas (Mission brand)
- 1 lb cooked & shredded/chopped chicken breast
- 16 oz can fat free refried beans
- 1/2 cup non fat greek yogurt
- 1/2 packet low sodium taco seasoning (or about 2 tbsp of homemade seasoning)
- 1/2 cup salsa
- 1/2 cup fresh cilantro minced
- 1 medium onion (I've used all kinds doesn't matter which kind) chopped
Optional Toppings
- Lettuce thinly sliced
- Cabbage/Carrots thinly sliced
- Cilantro
- Tomatoes
- Cheese (cheddar/monterey jack/queso fresco)
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 425 degrees.
- In a large pan heat the chicken, onion, taco seasoning, and cilantro together over medium-high heat until the onions are tender.
- Add the refried beans, mix thoroughly and then add the greek yogurt, and salsa. Mix together and heat for a few more minutes. Set aside.
- In another non stick pan lightly spray with cooking spray and place tortilla cook for about 30 seconds, lightly spray top side of tortilla, flip, and cook for another 30 seconds. Repeat this step until you are done cooking the tortillas.
- When the tortillas are finished evenly distribute and spread the chicken and bean mixture on each tortilla.
- Fold the tortillas in half and place on to a cookie sheet. You will most likely need two cookie sheets to fit all of them on.
- Bake for about 8 minutes or until the tacos are crispy and lightly browned.
- Let cool for a few minutes and top with lettuce, tomatoes, cabbage, cilantro, carrots. Whatever you fancy.
- Enjoy!
Moving these into the the regular rotation. The whole fam devoured them!
These were great. Made 24 of them. Half with shredded chicken and half with ground turkey. Made extra for the freezer . Found out the hard way to make sure I cook the tortilla at least 40 seconds per side. My first couple cracked on me but the rest were perfect. Will certainly make these again.
Making these again tonight !
These are a huge favorite in my house. I make them every couple of weeks!
Hi Star. Just made these tonight and my husband and I are OVER THE MOON! THEY ARE SOOOO GOOD!
I want to let your vegetarian readers know that I made them vegetarian using Butler’s soy curls in place of the chicken and they worked perfectly! I rehydrated them in a veggie stock with some taco seasoning in the liquid to give them extra flavour. 10/10
The whole fam loved this!! Thanks for this awesome recipe!
Love these my family ask for them all the time!!
I’ve made these many times, and we just love them! They’re versatile, so I’ve added black beans instead of refried beans and smashed them slightly, and I’ve added corn as well. They reheat really well in the oven or air fryer!
Love street tacos. Guess I am going to have to make these for the family.
Oh my gosh!! Why did I take so long to make these? Huge hit with my family! I felt like a legit foodie making these! Next time will definitely serve with guac and fresh limes!!
Easy and absolutely delicious! Can’t wait to make them again!!
Love these so much!!!! Great for leftovers.
We LOVE these!!! Have recently started using the filling for burritos too- so yummy and healthy!
Love them easy make
Every time I make these, I fall in love again. So easy and love to customize the toppings. Great for a crowd too. And they freeze like a dream, have some in my freezer right now! And the points on them are perfect while still feeling indulgent with tacos. Love them forever. #top2021
Newbie here, so I haven’t made these yet, butttttttttt, will be making them tomorrow!!!
#top2021 Delish!! Makes great leftovers-I froze mine. Served with Mexican Street corn! Perfect Taco Tuesday meal!!!
#top2021 Always on my Taco Tuesday menu plan!! So easy & great flavor!
A family favorite! And they’re perfect as leftovers. #top2021
Love making this filling and eating it on salads and in quesadillas! And of course as street tacos as well! So versatile and tasty! #top2021
Easy and so delicious! I’ve made this recipe twice with all the ingredients and once without the greek yogurt (didn’t have it on hand). Tasty either way. When I didn’t have the greek yogurt, I added a little sour cream on top before serving. Thanks, as always, for the helpful photos!

Our fav dish!! So good and easy. My 4 year old requests it frequently! #top2021
I do not make these often enough! My whole family loves them and they freeze and reheat SO well! #top2021
Good gracious these are so good! I love these for a few different reasons…they are delicious, they are crowd pleasers, and they make for great leftovers! Is there anything better than opening your freezer and remembering you have yummy tacos just sitting in there waiting for you?! I think not! They reheat beautifully in the oven, or the air fryer!
#top2021
These are amazing, but don’t even think about making them without the Mexican street corn to go with them. It’s like PB&J…they just belong together! #top2021
These are simply amazing and the whole family loves them!!! :o) #top2021
Easy and delicious, and they freeze well too. #top2021
#top2021
Love these so much! Always crunchy and delicious. Perfect for meal prep too. I try to always have some on hand in the freezer!
So tasty, super easy to make for one dinner or make lots of extra for the following days? I just pop in the air fryer and they’re perfect all over again.
OMG!! absolutely delicious. I was skeptical that the chicken would be dried out but the beans, salsa & greek yogurt keep it moist even after leftovers were reheated. I will absolutely be making these again for Taco Tuesday
It’s difficult to say which one I love more, these chicken street tacos or Star’s beef and bean taco meat. Both are outstanding!
These are our families absolute faves!! I share this recipe when anyone asks for a meal idea too. We double and freeze the leftovers. Throw in the air fryer and they crisp right up! Perfection.
I absolutely love these tacos! They are a delicious regular for taco Tuesday.
These were a staple when I was working on losing weight. I’m refocusing on my health again and will definitely keep this recipe in my rotation!
This is one of my families favorite tacos. It fantastic to feed a crowd with this recipe. Its so simple yet the
flavors are so good. I have passed this one to everyone that has tried it and its become their family favorite too.
Finally made these tacos! I’ve been eyeing them forever and now I’m kicking myself for waiting so long. I am definitely going to make these again but I do wish I had the chicken on hand already. I think a rotisserie
chicken would have really saved me some time. I also think I’m going to try warming the tortillas on a griddle so that I can do several at once. This is just so tasty and I know I’ll make them again!
This recipe is definitely one of my favorites! It’s so WW points friendly and DELICIOUS Can’t wait to make it again!

Star,
These are the BEST tacos I’ve ever made! Thank you so much for this wonderful recipe. I know I will make them again & again!
Thank you!
@ww.calliee
These tacos are SO good! This is one of my go to recipes. They are quick and easy and the whole family loves them. If it was up to my kids, we would have these tacos every week.
Love all your dishes I have made but these tacos are amazing! So crispy and delicious!
IG @yesi.eatn.gr8.losn.w8
This is my absolute, hands down favorite recipe from your site! My whole family devours them… it’s one of the few recipes I make as written, because you nailed it perfectly!
(I’m mamaricc from IG, for the air fryer giveaway… but these tacos truly are the best!)
These tacos are sooo good! They are so easy and delicious! I usually always have these ingredients on hand so it’s easy for me to make on a whim. And with all the leftover tacos (house of two and 20 tacos is a lot!), I let them cool completely and freeze them and crisp them up in the air fryer is amazing for a quick easy meal. Thanks so much for the recipe!

These are amazing! So easy and my whole family loves them. We love how they stick together and how dippable they are!
@alexpaige
This is my favorite taco recipe! It’s easy to make and so delicious. The whole fam…including the kiddos love them. @nesscnm
Such a great recipe! Perfect for Taco Tuesday in our house! @brookieortega

My family and I absolutely love the Street Tacos! So easy to make and the recipe makes so many. They are so filling that there are always leftovers…this mama loves any recipe that has leftovers. Definitely a staple in my house.

Love these tacos! Super easy to make, love that I can just make a big batch and eat them all week. Andddd they are healthy. Tacos are one of my fav foods so they’re a winner in every area! IG- brandi_mills
These are seriously some of the best tacos I’ve ever had. I love that it makes enough to eat as a meal and still have leftovers for lunch through the week – we make them at least once a month and the whole family LOVES them! They are amazzzzing reheated in the air fryer! 10/10!

The only chicken taco recipe you’ll ever need! A family staple!
Instagram: @maremann
This is my favorite thing to make for meal prep! I wrap two of them together and use them for my lunches. The perfect portion and taste great when you reheat them in the air fryer. Thank you for making a recipe that is super simple, delicious, and one that I have to hide the leftovers from my family
Forgot to leave my Insta! @trishknowles
I love these tacos!! My young girls (3.5, 2) don’t like beef tacos so these are the perfect way for me to get my fix but my kids also love them. They’re so easy to make I can make them in the middle of the week, but they also freeze so well I can make them ahead of time. @danielle.reyner
i love these tacos! i always make a bunch and freeze half for easy meals on days where i’m too tired to cook!
@ohthatshari
I love this recipe and it makes a lot. These tacos are perfect for game night or entertaining. Do not skip any of the steps….they are there for a reason. So yummy! IG: Reneefindingherway
I love these! So easy to make and tastes amazing. What should really tell you how good these are? My 2.5 year old only eats about 4 different things and new foods are hard but when he discovered these he ate 2! He loves “crispy taco” night. @lifeofasoutherngirl
I am in love with these. Made them for the Superbowl. Just my husband and I this year. Ate way too many but so WW friendly I stayed on plan. Served with Mexican Street Corn.
My household is a HUGE fan of “Taco Tuesday” or “Taco Thursday”… I mean we could probably eat tacos & guacamole every day for that matter. When I stumbled across this recipe I thought it would be a fun way to mix up our usual taco night. And I am happy to report the entire family loved it (Mom Win!). My husband was a little hesitant, but he agreed that the BEST part of this dish was the crunchy tortilla. We were going to skip this step… DO NOT DO THAT. Trust me! I love how Star puts full effort into each dish making them WW friendly for me & a crowd pleaser for the rest of the mouths in the household. Thank you, Skinnyishdish! Keep cranking out the yumminess 🙂
Is there a recipe for the green sauce shown in the main picture? It looks amazing!
These are absolute HEAVEN!!! My fiancé and I LOVE these tacos! I’ve sent this recipe to my family and friends urging them to make it immediately!!!
Tacos are a staple in our home. THESE tacos are our favorite recipe. I make a double batch, freeze in portions, and enjoy every time the taco craving hits! Make these tacos!
Ummmmm, these are amazing! And even better leftover, if that’s even possible! I’ve been using Star’s recipes since her Daily Dose of Pepper days and have yet to be disappointed. Having the WW points calculated is what led me to her website & I’m still using them years later! Thanks, Star!
These are SO good!! I must not have put as much filling in each taco and ended up with 28 total, but they reheated perfectly throughout the week and made for a super easy lunch. Will be adding these to our regular meal rotation!
Love this recipe!! We make this at least 2-3 times per month in our home ☺️
This is one of my favorite recipes on this site!! Delicious, Easy and Freezable!! Three words that fit well into my lifestyle of cooking and watching what we eat.
Love these. HUGE part of my weight loss journey. COVID kinda got the best of me, sooo these are coming back on the weekly meal plan!!!!!
These were SO good! Pretty quick to make which was awesome!
Love these so much!
Amazing! No one has ever known these are lightened up!!
One of my favorite recipes! I could eat these for days!
My family loves these tacos! Thanks for all of your delicious recipes.
Love these! Easy prep. Love that they freeze so wonderfully. We reheating the air fryer. Yummmo!
These are THE best tacos! And they make so many! Always enough for a second meal! They freeze great and crisp up again in the oven when re-heated! I’d give them a million stars if I could!
One of my all time favorites! Easy to make and bonus that they freeze well and reheat just as easily! So good!
So good and so filling! I honestly love these so much because it makes so many and it’s so easy to portion and freeze. The best for meal prepping!
Do you freeze it all together? As in the chicken mixture in the corn shell? The recipe sounds amazing. Thank you!
Yep! I wrap 2-3 tacos up in a piece of foil then place in a ziplock bag! I let them thaw over night before reheating. Reheated in the oven or air fryer is best, but still pretty good in the microwave (just not crunchy anymore)
Do you cook them first then freeze or just add filling and freeze?
I cook them first, but I suppose you probably don’t have to, however, I would heat the tortillas in the pan before assembling the tacos because otherwise the shells will crack when folding. I’ll add better freezer instruction in the post.
What I do when I make them:
I cook them just like the recipe says and then let them cool completely if wanting to freeze right away. I usually wrap them 2-3 at a time in a little homemade foil pack and then add them to a freezer gallon plastic bag. I take however many I want to eat/make for dinner and let them thaw for at least 6-8 hours before reheating them. I prefer reheating them in the oven or air fryer, but the microwave will work too. In the microwave they just won’t be crispy, but they will still be good.
These are so yummy and warm up really nice, which is good cause it makes a ton!
Best tacos ever
The best! I’ve been making these for a couple years.
For some reason no matter how long I “fry” and bake my tacos they never crisp up. So I am wondering if you’ve ever tried these in the air fryer? Wondering if that might crisp them up better? Or even broiler in the oven? Just curious! Otherwise we LOVE LOVE LOVE this recipe!!!
Another winner!!! Loved them as did my hubby.
Definitely heat or re heat in air fryer! Amazing!
If I were to omit the dairy, would you recommend upping the salsa or adding anything to get the same consistency?
Thank you!
Hi Tiffany! You don’t need to replace anything with the dairy. I hope you enjoy!
Every single thing I’ve made of yours is delicious, Star! Thank you thank you! I’m making these tacos for first time tonight but I’m using ground beef. Hoping they’ll still be okay.
Your blog and recipes are amazing. And for anyone reading this, she replies to questions and comments on Instagram too! Star is awesome!
Thanks,
Shawna (on IG – lovebeingigi)
You’re so sweet! Thank you so much for all the compliments. I hope you enjoyed the tacos switching it up with ground beef! I love doing that.
This recipe is amazing!!! With most restaurants being totally closed during the COVID-19 outbreak I was seriously craving some Mexican food. We made ours on the grill and OMG… we will definitely be adding this recipe into our dinner rotation. Loved it!
Hey! I love these so much! How many points for blue? I looked at the notes but blue isn’t mentioned. Thank you!!
Hi! I am so happy you enjoy them! I accidentally wrote green where blue was supposed to be written. On WW Blue they are one point each or 3 tacos for 4 Points!
This was the first Skinnyish Dish recipe I ever tried and we all loved it! We eat some form of taco twice per week so these fit right in!
These were so good! I made extra tacos for the week and then ended up just freezing the filing. Thinking I could put it on nachos or pizza crust. Thank you for all your delicious recipes!
Made these tonight for our dinner. Wonderful and easy! Cut the recipe in half for 2 of us and had several leftover to freeze. Really good and will make again! Following for more great skinny recipes!
Seriously SO good!! Made them last night and can’t wait to see how they re-heat from frozen.
Curious if you reheated from frozen and how you did it?
These came out great! The only issue I’m having is with the point calculations. When I enter everything, 3 tacos come out to 7 freestyle points. How do I get it to be 5? Thanks!
Hey Natalie! Are you using the mission extra thin tortillas or regular corn tortillas? That could be the issue.
I am definitely going to make these, probably this week. While reading the post I noticed you said the tacos freeze well, but I didn’t see any directions for it. If you have any left to freeze, what suggestions can you offer? There is just two of us so even if I halved the recipe I would still need to freeze some other them.
I am relatively new to your blog but have been really pleased with the recipes I’ve tried. Thank you!!!
Hi! Planning on making these tonight. Any chance heating the tortillas in the microwave rather than in a pan would work? Flipping 24 tortillas, 30 seconds each, seems really tedious. Thanks!
I haven’t tried it that way, but let me know how it goes if you do! It’s alot quicker than it sounds. It’s totally worth it!
I heated the tortillas all together in the microwave. Worked perfectly. Great recipe.
Made these for dinner and they were so GOOD! As an incredibly lazy cook, they were a little labor intensive-but easy and worth the effort! I will definitely be adding these into my weekend rotation 🙂
I could eat this every night! I hate that I waited so long to try it….now I am going to look up Mexican Street Corn for an accompaniment for next time!
Thank you for all you do! It is so helpful!
I’m so happy you enjoyed these, Robin. The street corn goes perfectly next to’m and it takes just moments to make!
Could I substitute ground turkey and keep everything else the same? Would points be the same since it’s still lean white meat?
Hi Dee! If you’re using extra lean ground turkey breast then the points should still stay the same, but just lean ground turkey (93% lean) could be different. That being said, I have seen multiple people use ground turkey and enjoy these tacos that way!
I want to make these tonight but I don’t have any salsa. Could I use rotel and not change the flavor too much?
I think that should work alright! I hope you enjoy
I love these tacos I just was a little curious why am I tortilla was so soft almost soggy. Any ideas why this happened?
Hey Jennifer, is this when you’re reheating them or first time around? Try just baking them for a little longer until they feel crunchy to touch. I hope that helps!
Hey I was wondering what you use for homeade taco seasoning! I read through a bunch of comments looking but there are so many comments! Thanks! Looking forward to making these this week.
did you also have a crockpot recipe for the tacos/ taco filling? I thought I seen on theshrinkingmomma she shared that recipe of yours……
I’m probably a little late to this post to expect a comment back, but I just wanted some advice– I made these and they were AMAZING. When I went to reheat them after wrapping them in foil, most of them broke apart on the bottom of the shell… can’t figure out why! We ate them more as quesadillas the second time around.
Anyways, I just found your blog and I’m obsessed. I’ve made tacos, enchiladas, bruschetta pasta, chicken chili and the breakfast sandwiches. So many of my friends have started following you due to all my delicious pictures! I made the Mexican-style street corn and I swear that I found heaven!
Hi Ashley! I’m so happy to see you’re loving all those recipes up! I’m real sorry that happened with your tacos. I really am not too sure what could have caused that. I haven’t had that feed back and mine personanlly haven’t done that. The only thing I could think is that were they still hot when you wrapped them up? If so, next time.. Let’m cool before wrapping up.
I can’t wait to make these! Do you think I could use small flour tortillas instead of corn? The corn ones I use usually crack and break…which wouldn’t work well for folding them.
Hi Jill. You most certainly can use flour, but the key to making the corn tortillas stay intact and not breaking is heating them in the pan first before folding.
I have also had that problem but I figured out if I heated the tortillas up just a little in the microwave it solved the problem!!
Only heat up a few at a time so they’re still a little warm when you’re folding them.
HTH
Do you think these would turn out the same (the baking part) with small flour tortillas? The corn tortillas I have found always crack. Can’t wait to try these next week!
My family LOVES your Cowboy’s meal
These sound amazing! If I use your recipe for the Mexican shredded chicken, should i still add the taco seasoning to the chicken? I didn’t know if it would be too much or if that’s the way you meant it in the recipe. Thank you!
I don’t think you should need to add the taco seasoning. The Mexican Shredded chicken has plenty of flavor! I hope you love it!
Could you mix up the filling a couple of days before? We are headed on a trip and these sound yummy. We could assemble and cook them there in the oven to save time, I’m thinking. There are 10 of us… Double the batch?
I’d probably double the batch to be safe. While the tacos are pretty filling two tacos each might not be enough. Also, you can for sure make up the filling beforehand. I hope everyone enjoys!
Oh my god, these are amazing! I got 19. We had 5 leftover, my husband and 13 year old son finished them after dessert and swimming!! They were a hit and I made the Mexican street corn to go with them. That is a winner too!! Thank you for making family friendly ww meals!!
These are delicious! I doubled the recipe which will give me lunch for about 13 days! Going back to work after maternity leave and I’m trying to remain on plan with Weight Watchers. I messed up and only put in one can of beans but they are still delicious! I won’t forget the beans next time because hello! Zero points! Thank you for making and sharing such delicious recipes!

What brand of salsa do you use?
I like to use my homemade stuff mostly, but in a pinch I’ll grab Jack’s (from the produce section) or On the border cantina near the the other jarred salsa
I made these last week, so good! I froze the leftover chicken in individual portions for lunches. I reheat and eat like a dip with corn Good Thins. Mmmm…thank you!.
The link to how you make your shredded chicken does not work. 🙁
Thank you. I’ll take a look at it and fix it!
Do you think I could make these a day in advance and then bake the next day?
That should work just fine!

Hi Star! Did you ever post a recipe for stove top fried apples? I would LOVE to try those!!
Hi Star! Did you ever post a recipe for stove top fried apples? I would LOVE to try those!!
these sound so good, I have a lb. of f/f ground turkey I have to cook today, may replace the chicken with it this time. Do you think this would work? I didn’t look back at other comments because there are so many!!! Can’t wait to try these
It should work just fine. I’m not the biggest fan of fat free ground turkey, but I think all the other flavor should make it delicious!

Holy cow, I made these tonight and they were soooo good! 2 of my 3 kids even asked for them in their lunches tomorrow. That has never happened before! I feel like I’ve been stalking you blog lately but I can’t help myself. Every recipe I have tried has been a hit. Thank you so much!
Yay, you’re welcome. I am so so so happy to hear the family loved the tacos, Kathy! “Stalk” away. Haha! There here for a reason!

I was DETERMINED to make these tonight even though I didn’t have any chicken or turkey and didnt have any lettuce, tomatoes, taco toppings, etc. In the house! I made some shrimp on the side instead of putting them in the tacos because I was afraid to overcook the shrimp. I made the filling with red onion and I added some frozen mixed colored peppers to the filling mix, otherwise everything was the same. They basically ended up being cheesy refried been quesadillas. They were phenomenal!!! I can’t wait to really have all the fixings to make these the right way!!! Thank you so much for this recipe!!!
I’m so glad you were able to make this recipe yours with what you had on hand and that you loved it, Randi! Love to hear that, Thank you!

I am going to do these with your mexican shredded chicken. I will eliminate the taco seasoning but should I eliminate anything else, onion yogurt?
You can eliminate the taco seasoning and onion, but you can keep the yogurt, cilantro, refried beans, cheese. Hope you love’m!

Hey! When you freeze them or store them in the fridge. Do you bake them first and then wrap in foil?
Yep Bake’m first, let’m cool, and then wrap in foil and store in freezer. Hope that helps!

I made a vegan version of these tonight and they were delicious! Used spinach instead of chicken, coconut unsweetened yogurt and so delicious non-dairy cheese. Thank you so much!
I am so glad you were able to make them vegan! Thanks for sharing. I’ll be able to let others know it can be done!
Made these for my family a few nights ago and we were all obsessed! So easy, so healthy & so delicious.

I made these for dinner tonight! They were sooooo good! My husband loved them… a lot! Thanks for all the awesome recipes! We have also cooked the southwest egg rolls and meatball sub bubble up. All so good!

I made them the other day pretty much exactly as posted (cut the recipe back b/c there are only 2 of us). At 3 tacos for 5 points… what a flavor and point bargain!! I made enough so that we’ll have them tonight again. I had to come back here to get the reheating instructions. How easy is that?
Thanks so much for that recipe.
PS: made my own “refried beans” by dumping a can of pinto beans UNDRAINED into a skillet and mashing them w/ a potato masher until creamy but still a little lumpy. Simmered until some of the liquid cooked off and they were the right consistency. I’ll never buy canned “refried” beans again b/c these were so moist and creamy. And just as easy.

I’ve been looking high and low for your Stove Top Fried Apples and Shepherds Pie. Did you ever post the recipes?
I have not! I’ll post them both soon!

OMG-these were the bomb! Loved them! I skipped the retried beans cause we aren’t bean people and increased the reduced fat cheese to 1 cup. It kept the points the same. Absolutely loved them and so happy for leftovers! Your shredded chicken was also perfect! Thank you, thank you, thank you!

At what point do you shred the chicken
the chicken will need to be already cooked and shredded.

Oh, sorry, one question. When you wrap in foil do you wait until they cool or wrap hot? Want to keep as much crispiness as I can. Thanks!
I wait till they are cool!

Just finished making my first batch, so good! Grown kids and grandkids are eating them up now, not even waiting for additional toppings! So much for meal prep! I used a mild taco seasoning and sauce, next time I’ll use something hotter. Awesome recipe! Thank you!
I’m so happy you enjoyed!

Hi Star!
I’m planning on making your Mexican Shredded Chicken recipe and was wondering if you think I could use that + refried beans for my filling.
Yes, for sure!! I hope you love these!

These were awesome! I didn’t use any cilantro, as my family doesn’t like it. Other than that I followed the recipe exactly. The whole family liked them! Thanks for sharing! We will definitely make them again.

Thanks for what looks like a great recipe. I plan to shop for the ingredients tomorrow so I can make them. Do you have a calculation for the points per taco on the new Freestyle version of WW? I noticed the points for sp and pp but not Freestyle. Thanks for sharing all your great recipes.
Hi Pam! It is listed below the other calculations, but I just edited to make it more clear. I hope ya enjoy! Here’s that info: 1 taco (2 Freestyle Smart Points), 2 Tacos (3 Freestyle Smart Points), 3 Tacos (5 Freestyle Smart Points)

I have tried so many of your recipes and I have loved them all!! I can’t wait to make these this upcoming week! If I used flour tortillas (I have a whole package and I’m trying to clear about my cabinets!) would that increase the points drastically?

how do i measure out a 1lb of shredded chicken if i do not have a scale? i know this seems stupid. But how many cups would a pound of shredded chicken be?
If I had to take a good guess, I think it’s about 4 cups. I’m honestly not sure though and I don’t have any shredded chicken in the fridge right now to measure out and weigh. Thanks for bringin that to my attention though. I will be sure to do that next time I have it and add it to the ingredient list in cups!!

I haven’t yet, but I’ve seen LOTS of people do it and they loved it!

I made these for the first time, using scrambled eggs for breakfast tacos!!! I just slightly undercooked the scrambled eggs before putting them in the tortillas. Delicious!

Making these this weekend gonna do a double batch and freeze them when you reheat do you unwrap them or leave in the foil?
I open up the foil, but I don’t unwrap completely. They will get crispy again that way. I hope you enjoy!

Not a big fan of refried beans. Do you think I’d need to add a little more yogurt just for moisture or do you think i’ll be ok eliminating the beans all together?
Love your recipes, I did a batch of the breakfast sandwiches for work this week and they’re phenomenal.
I’m so happy you enjoy the sandwiches. I haven’t made them without the refried beans, but I think it should be okay without adding the extra yogurt. I hope you enjoy!

Can you take out the Greek yogurt? I’m not a fan of the texture and taste of it. Or can you not taste it?
You really can’t taste it, but you don’t have to use it! =)

Hi again. I’m sorry to be a pain. I just re-read the recipe and comments for re-heating and I see three different oven temps. 350. 400. And 425. Any direction you can provide? Thank you!
reheat at 400 for 10-12 minutes until warm/crisp

OMG! These have to be the hands down best tacos you’ve came up with and my Mom has ever made! They’re just so darn good! I pretty sure I ate half of all of them! THank you so much for making not only food that’s good for you, but food that’s good for the soul!
Too bad you can’t add more than 5 stars, LOL!

Will these work with ground beef or turkey instead of the chicken?
Yes mam!

These tacos are absolutely delicious!!! I do have a question. Instead of making all the tacos at one time, there are only two of us, I just refrigerated the meat mixture, and made only a few at a time. I’d like to know how much meat mixture you put in each taco? I may have overstuffed mine!!

When I plugged in that I ate two on my fitness pal it says the calories are 318?
I’ll double check and get back to you, but I’m fairly sure the info is correct. Did you plug in the mission extra thin corn tortillas?

These are amazing! I just want to thank you for this and all of your recipes! All phenomenal! I have to add that I am a. Vegetarian/pescatarian so I don’t eat meat and every recipe I’ve made, including this one, I have vegetarian-ized. This one I followed exactly except I used tofurkey faux chicken strips in the place of chicken. My husband ate 4 the night I made them. He is a carnivore and loved them! These will definitely be in my regular rotation now! So budget friendly too with making so many, freezer friendly, and great for work lunch!!!! Thanks!!!!

These are my new favorite! For anyone with an instant pot I was able to do my chicken 20 minutes on the poultry setting then NR. Then set aside and sautéed the onions and so on with the recipe. One pot to mess with, heck yes.
Star- I 1000% appreciate this recipe. Not only are they FILLING & low in points but they’re great reheated (as mentioned) makes it so nice for me to pull something like this out of the fridge/freezer and have it be just as great reheated as it is fresh. I love the simplicity of your recipes <3
Oh I am so happy you enjoyed these tacos! And, I really appreciate the tip for the Instant Pot! I have yet to grab one of those things. I’m just being stubborn really. Haha!

These look so tasty! Have you made them with ground beef instead of chicken? Just wondering if that would still work.
I have before! They are super delicious that way when ya need a lil red meat in your life. I actually left out the sour cream/cheese when doing it just because I honestly forgot and added them later. =)
Great! I am making them tonight for lunches this week! Also enjoying the spicy sausage muffins for breakfast again this week! 🙂

Hi Star! The filling is so delicious but my tacos didn’t come out crispy. Any thoughts on what I did wrong? I used the extra thin and heated them first. But not very crispy out of the oven and yours look soooo crunchy!
Hmmm! I’m a lil stumped. I’ve never had that issue with mine and I’ve never had anyone ask about that before. If anything maybe just bake them a bit longer, but keep an eye on’m so they don’t burn. Let me know how that goes. I’m so happy you liked them otherwise, though! =)

Did u use your homemade salsa
I usually use the homemade salsa because I make a batch whenever I make mexican food, but you don’t have to. It does make the tacos even better! =)

When I put this into the recipe builder, it says 3 smart points per taco. Any idea why the difference?
It could be the corn tortillas that you used. I use the mission extra thin tortillas which makes them a lot lower in points. 3 Smart Points is still a pretty good deal per taco though. Hope you enjoyed!

These were loved by everyone!! From my 8 year old niece, to my husband (who usually hates refried beans, but I snuck ’em in anyway!!), even my college aged brother loved them. And of course my ww self was excited to be able to eat 3 of these, guilt free. Paired with the Mexican corn on your blog. Perfecto. May add some jalapeños to the chicken/bean mixture next time to crank up the heat Had them for dinner last night and already looking forward to having them again for lunch. THANK YOU!

These are delicious, mine came out to 3sp per taco… not to sure why! But great recipe!!
Thank you, happy you enjoyed! It could be the tortillas or other ingredients. Sometimes different ingredients can add up a bit more.

Have you tried freezing them? Cannot wait to make. I am new to your website and have tried several things with great success. I have two picky teenagers and the biscuit gravy casserole and Moms chicken casserole was a huge hit?
Hi! Yes, you can freeze these. I wrap 2 tacos at a time in foil and then throw them into a freezer friendly ziplock bag. I personally take them out and thaw before reheating them. I reheat at 350 for about 15 minutes until warmed through. I’m so happy you’re family is enjoying the recipes!

These have been on my list for a while, and I finally made them today. They were amazing. I can’t wait to have leftovers through the week. I can’t figure out how yours were only two points, mine came out to three (even with testing out different brands in the recipe builder), but they are well worth it!
Thank you, So happy you enjoyed them! A lot of the times when people have had a problem with getting them at 2 Points is when they did not get the extra thin corn tortillas. Mission makes them! Not sure if that was the problem, but glad you enjoyed!

Can you also use with plain chobani greek yogurt? it might change the calories but will it change the consistency?
Greek yogurt would be a perfect substitute!

You are a genius!!! On the WW train as of two weeks ago and I made these last night for my family. We are a taco loving group and my husband HATES corn tortillas so I was expecting some push back. However he kept an open mind and halfway through dinner said “these are really good and so filling.” My kids loved them. And I ate 4 – because I could at only 3pts (I didn’t have RF cheese and used thicker tacos..but still even 3pts each is amazing)!!! Thank you. Love everything I see on this blog. Can’t wait to try another DDOP recipe.
Thank you so much. I have to admit I don’t love corn tortillas either, but I was determined to make them delicious somehow and that’s how I came up with these! So happy you and the family enjoyed!

I’m confused why the calories say 90. The tortilla alone says 120 calories online. How are the calories calculated?
3 tortillas are 120 calories and I use my fitness pal to plus in the ingredients and divide the servings out

After seeing these on your blog/IG for months, I FINALLY have them on the menu (and ingredients on hand) for this week!! So excited!
