These. Were. A. Hit.
And you wanna know the best part? I used store-bought rotisserie chicken, store-bought taco shells, store-bought salsa, and canned refried beans. (Yes, we are taking all the shortcuts today, yall)

Listen, I am all about a meal that feels like I did the MOST, but actually required the LEAST effort. And this? This is that meal.

I swear on my favorite cheese board, this recipe is so easy, you could be half-asleep, running late, or hosting an impromptu dinner, and it would still slap.

Here’s what you need:

• 1 store-bought rotisserie chicken (shred it up, so easy)
• 1 pack store-bought taco shells (crispy or soft, live your truth)
• 1 jar store-bought salsa (mild? spicy? you do you)
• 1 can refried beans (because creamy deliciousness)
• Cheese (obviously)
• Sour cream (or Greek yogurt if you’re feeling wholesome)
• Whatever toppings make you happy (shredded lettuce, diced tomatoes, avocado, a drizzle of hot sauce… you get it)

How to assemble the taco:

• Heat up those refried beans so they’re spreadable and warm.
• Shred your rotisserie chicken and toss it in a bowl. (If you wanna be extra, mix it with some salsa.)
• Warm up the taco shells (a quick toast in the oven works wonders).
• Layer it up: Beans first, then chicken, then cheese, then all the toppings your heart desires.
• Drizzle some extra salsa on top, add a dollop of sour cream, and take a bow because you just made the easiest and most delicious tacos of all time.

Want to be a little fancy?

• Make a quick side of rice (you know, if you feel like it).
• Throw together a simple salad (literally just lettuce, tomato, lime juice, salt, done).
• Serve it up with my famous 3 ingredient margarita and feel like a gourmet taco chef with zero effort.
