Bring bold Alabama flavor to your table with Sombrero Salsa. Featured in our easy chicken taco recipe, this local favorite adds fresh, zesty taste to tacos, nachos, cookouts, and family meals. Available in Original and Hot varieties at Piggly Wiggly Birmingham.

Ingredients

1½ lbs boneless, skinless chicken breasts or chicken thighs
1 cup Sombrero Salsa (Original or Hot)
1 tbsp olive oil
1 packet taco seasoning
12 small flour or corn tortillas
2 cups shredded lettuce
1 cup diced tomatoes
1 cup shredded cheddar or Mexican blend cheese
½ cup sour cream
Fresh cilantro, chopped
Lime wedges for serving

Instructions

Step 1: Season the Chicken: Rub the chicken with olive oil and taco seasoning until evenly coated.

Step 2: Cook the Chicken: Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the chicken for 5–7 minutes per side, or until fully cooked and the internal temperature reaches 165°F.

Step 3: Add the Salsa: Reduce heat to low and pour in 1 cup of Sombrero Salsa. Let the chicken simmer in the salsa for 3–5 minutes to absorb the flavor.

Step 4: Slice or Shred: Remove the chicken from the skillet and slice into strips or shred with two forks. Toss the chicken back into the salsa mixture.

Step 5: Warm the Tortillas: Warm tortillas in a skillet or microwave until soft and pliable.

Step 6: Assemble the Tacos: Fill each tortilla with salsa chicken. Top with shredded lettuce, diced tomatoes, shredded cheese, and a dollop of sour cream.

Step 7: Garnish and Serve: Sprinkle with fresh cilantro and serve with lime wedges and extra Sombrero Salsa on the side.
