Chicken Tacos in Lettuce Cups
This is one of those dishes that can go in two directions.
If you’re in the mood for something lighter, it works well wrapped in lettuce. If you want something more filling, you can always use tortilla wraps or taco shells.

Ingredients
½ kg boneless chicken (julienned)
3 tbsp taco seasoning
Cumin powder
Juice of 3 lemons
½ cup chicken stock
1 tbsp oil
Lettuce leaves
Grated cheese
Yoghurt dip
Method
Marinate the chicken with lemon juice, cumin powder, and taco seasoning for a few hours.
Heat oil in a pan and cook the chicken, adding stock as needed, until cooked through but still juicy.
For the lettuce version, place the chicken in a lettuce leaf, add yoghurt dip, and wrap.
For tacos, warm the shells in the oven for a few minutes and assemble with chicken, dip, cheese, and toppings.
-
Add the dip after the chicken - otherwise the lettuce can become soggy.
Sprinkle the cheese liberally and if you like it spicy, you can add a dollop of salsa.
