Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Keto Chicken Taco Cups.
Step 1
Start by preheating your oven to a cozy 350°F (175°C) and prepare a baking sheet by lining it with parchment paper.
Step 2
Next, take your canned chicken and drain it thoroughly, making sure to squeeze out as much moisture as you can.
Step 3
Once drained, spread the chicken evenly across the prepared baking sheet, creating a nice, even layer.
Step 4
Pop the chicken into the oven and let it bake for about 10 minutes, or until it’s dried out and ready for the next step.
Step 5
After the chicken has dried, transfer it to a mixing bowl and crank up the oven temperature to a sizzling 500°F (260°C).
Step 6
In the bowl, add in some eggs, shredded smoked cheddar cheese, and your favorite taco seasoning.
Step 7
Mix everything together until it’s well combined and you can’t see any separate ingredients.
Step 8
Now, it’s time to shape your taco shells! Scoop out four even mounds of the mixture onto the same baking sheet, gently flattening each mound into a circle that resembles a tortilla.
Step 9
Bake these in the hot oven for about 8 to 10 minutes, or until your taco shells are set and have a lovely golden hue.
Step 10
Enjoy the delightful aroma filling your kitchen as you prepare to savor these delicious homemade taco shells!.
