You are short on time for making lunch or dinner, yet you don't want to sacrifice taste and nutrition? Tacos can make for a healthy meal, packed with protein & vegetables that are bursting with flavor in every bite. Here's a quick and tasty ranch chicken taco recipe in the microwave in minutes. First, you need some rotisserie chicken pulled off the bones and shredded, tossed in a fast homemade taco seasoning composed of salt, chili powder, garlic powder, onion powder, ground cumin, smoked paprika, and a pinch of cayenne pepper for some heat. The taco seasoning recipe yields 1/4 cup, enough seasoning to use for your next taco craving.
Corn or flour tortillas are warmed up and filled with shredded red cabbage, tomatoes, thinly sliced red onions, avocados, lettuce & corn, and a side of ranch dressing for added zest. Ranch dressing is simple to make using mayonnaise, sour cream, fresh herbs, lemon juice, and cracked black peppercorns. The homemade recipe is included; however, feel free to use any store-bought dressing to save some time. Complement your tacos with a side of tomato salsa, guacamole, or sour cream.
There you have it, a healthy meal in minutes.
