BBQ Chicken Tacos Recipe
BBQ Chicken Tacos Recipe – Take the left over bbq chicken and lay them out on your MEAT cutting board. You can chop or shred the meat off the bones and cut into bite size pieces. (I take the skin off before and only use the meat for tacos, but I know there are Skin Lovers out there so keep it on if ya like!)
So if you are starting from scratch, (see my recipe here) or smoke and grill your chicken until 165 degree internal temperature the way you like it.
In addition heat 1 Tbsp of Olive oil in a large saute’ pan on med-high heat, add chicken and brown for about 3 to 5 minutes until the chicken is heated through and has a little crispness. Add 2 Tbsp of BBQ sauce. Mix thoroughly, take off heat and set aside.
Drain the black beans and add to a sauce pan and 1/2 cup of your favorite salsa heat over med heat until hot. Add sea salt and black pepper to taste.
And then slice the kernels off the smoked corn cobs and place into a saute pan with 1/2 Tbsp olive oil. Heat through until hot. (No smoked corn, you can add a drained can or frozen corn instead.)
