What is the best way to warm up tortillas for tacos?
If you like your tortillas more moist and flexible, you can microwave them in small batches for 30 seconds at a time and then make sure they are placed in a container with a lid. If, on the other hand, you prefer a drier, crispier tortilla, you can either flip them on a grill or stove top griddle until the edges turn brown. I like them warmed over a grill. Whichever way you prefer, I recommend that you wrap them in tin foil or make sure you place them in a container to keep them warm while you eat.
Can I make the meat in advance?
Yes. I definitely prefer the meat fresh off the grill, but it you are pressed for time, the meat can be made in advance and reheated. Reheating in the oven is best. Wrap the chicken in foil so it doesn’t dry out. Place in oven at 250 degrees Fahrenheit until the internal temperature reaches 165 degrees Fahrenheit.
Does the chicken have to be grilled? Can I make it on the stove instead?
No. The chicken can easily be cooked on a stove top. If preparing on a stove top, heat a heavy skillet over medium high heat. Cook the chicken for about 5-7 minutes per side or until the internal temperature reaches 165 degrees Fahrenheit.
