BBQ Chicken Recipes:

So if you are struggling with simple lunch ideas you will want to keep this one in your back pocket. I used a rotisserie chicken to make this recipe super easy. I pulled the chicken apart and placed it in a bowl. I covered it in our favorite BBQ sauce, added diced onions, and fresh diced cilantro. When I was ready to cook it I just spooned on the chicken mix into the tortilla and topped with cheese. This is seriously so good Y’all, it’s a must try! I served mine with more fresh cilantro on top and ranch for dipping.
