The secret to a great taco is contrast in texture -- here, crunchy coleslaw mix (another time-saver) partners well with tender chicken and soft tortillas.

WOW. This was ridiculously easy and absolutely delicious. I made it with fish sticks instead of chicken tenders, but I'm sure they would be great. Perfect easy dinner.

I LOVE these! The chipotles in adobo are so good! I could eat the coleslaw and cilantro by itself!

This is very easy and wonderfully tasty! You could make it a bit more gourmet and complicated by marinating fresh chicken tenders and baking or pan-frying them, but it's a lovely easy recipe as it is. I used frozen chicken "fries," which worked out really well. I ate this with black beans and rice and some fresh pineapple and tangerine. All in all, a lovely and delicious meal!
