Street Corn Inspired Baked Tacos

I love making baked tacos for an easy weeknight dinner and find they are a crowd pleaser too! These Street Corn Inspired Baked Tacos take one of my favorites, street corn, combined with the baked taco to make a delicious meal.

I’m always looking for ways I can switch up my dinners while still keeping them easy, healthy and tasting good! If you’ve been to One Balanced Life, you may have noticed I love all things street corn. While this is just an inspiration of it, I love to find ways to do that in my kitchen. A few other favorites are the Street Corn Inspired Pasta Salad and Street Corn Inspired Chicken Salad too.

This recipe is great because it’s something that everyone will love, packs in a good amount of protein and made with simple ingredients! Including one of my favorite to pick up at the store, rotisserie chicken. You will love these for a quick and easy meal.

How to make these tacos:

2. In a bowl, combine ingredients for street corn inspired chicken mixture. Mix to combine.
3. On a large baking sheet, lay out corn tortillas.
4. Place in the preheated oven for 3-4 minutes to warm. It’s important that you do this so they don’t break when you bake them!!
5. Remove tortillas from the oven and top each one with shredded monterey jack cheese. On one side, add street corn inspired chicken. Fold tortilla over and press down. Do this to each tortilla until you’ve used up all of your chicken.

How to store your leftovers:

It’s best to store your leftovers in a sealed container! I like using these in the kitchen.

If you want to switch these up, you can try this instead:

• Use shredded mexican cheese or shredded mozzarella cheese.
• Try it with shredded chicken breast instead of rotisserie chicken.
• Make them with your favorite corn tortilla. I used the Whole Foods 365 brand!
