  • Bake tacos for 2 minutes or until the cheese melts. Remove from oven and carefully fold each tortilla in half, gently pressing them together in the shape of a taco.

Notes

For the shredded chicken, I recommend using easy 3 ingredient crock pot shredded chicken or instant pot shredded chicken. Regular-size corn tortillas can also be used.
