You knew I wasn’t gonna leave you hanging with this delicious mango salsa, right? I totally had to create a delicious dinner that incorporated it. These Rotisserie Chicken Tacos couldn’t be easier to pull together, but pack plenty of flavor. In 15 minutes, you’ll have an incredible dinner on the table.
Ingredients for Rotisserie Chicken Tacos
Mango Salsa: The perfect fruity, spicy vibe for these tacos. See this post for all the details.
Lazy Guacamole: One of my favorite weeknight dinner hacks! I simply mash together avocado, some lime juice, garlic powder, red pepper flakes or cayenne pepper, and some salt. Almost instant guacamole without any chopping! Because let’s be serious, the mango salsa is enough labor for one meal.
Corn Tortillas: Any tortilla will work as long as they’re taco-sized!
Rotisserie Chicken: Ah, yes. The star of the show. Rotisserie chicken is one of my favorite protein hacks. They’re cheap, delicious, and already cooked. Less work for you!
Cotija Cheese: An aged Mexican-style cheese similar to parmesan. I get a big block at Trader Joe’s and it’s pretty dang affordable, but you can definitely use cheddar or any cheese you fancy.
Make It Your Own!
- Swap Out the Mango: If you’re feeling bold, you can try pineapple or watermelon in place of the mango to create a different flavor profile.
- Make It Less Spicy: Sub poblano or bell pepper for the jalapeño if you don’t like spice.
- Try a Different Protein: Yes, rotisserie chicken is the star of the show, but you could use black beans for a vegetarian twist.
- Switch Up the Cheese: As I mentioned before, cotija is my favorite for these tacos but not a must. Use your favorite!
