Things have been SO crazy lately. In a good way, but crazy nonetheless! We’re looking for a house, and let’s just say it’s been an emotional rollercoaster (read more about it in the Healthy Chicken Fajita Tacos post). Don’t get me wrong, it’s so much fun and such an exciting time in life! Definitely don’t want to take it for granted. We’ve learned so much through this process!
If you’ve been through the house hunting process, I’d LOVE to know what your tips would be! My biggest struggle is getting emotionally attached to every house we see (LOL). It’s like a break up every time we don’t get the house! <— Don’t worry, I’m working on this thing!
All that to say, we’re super excited about potentially moving soon! If you want to follow along, be sure to follow the journey over on my personal Instagram. But moving is CRAZY, y’all. And I’m finding it’s even crazier post marriage. We have tons of lovely home items that people gave us for our wedding, all our new furniture, my overflowing closet (oops!), and (ahem) my breakfast bowl/blog props collection. <—- It might be time to sort through some of this stuff!
The good thing is that the packing process will really force me to consider what we use and don’t use, which I’m finding to be like 2.5% of everything we have. Ok, I SO did not do the math on that, but you get my point! The down side to packing (other than hello packing DUH)? Trying to figure out how to continue cooking meals without accidentally packing up the things you need!
All that to say, these Healthy Sriracha Shredded Chicken Tacos are perfect for this season of life!
They’re SO easy to make and DELICIOUS. Just bake the Sriracha coated chicken for 30 minutes, shred it, chop up some veggies, and put it all in corn tortillas. The best healthy dinner for a crazy season like mine right now!
These tacos are similar to the Sriracha Lime Shrimp Tacos, but use chicken instead (and are a little less hands on). Also, this is my favorite Sriracha for both of those recipes!
What are your favorite recipes during a crazy busy season? And any house hunting tips?

Brittany says:
I just started a diet and I love Mexican food it’s one of my weaknesses, this recipe was a god sent and taste amazing also is quick and easy!
Christine McMichael replied:
This recipe is so perfect, then! Love it. I’m so glad you enjoyed it, Brittany!
Brittany says:
I know this is an old post but if you see can you please let me know if you cook the cabbage and peppers. Its doesn’t really say if they are cooked bit the recipe itself looks amazing!
Christine McMichael replied:
Hi, Brittany! I didn’t cook the cabbage and peppers in this recipe, but I think that it would also be delicious if you did! Either way should be good. I prefer the cabbage and peppers uncooked because they gives the tacos a crunchy texture!
Erin Cawley says:
This dish was a hit for my entire family! And one of my kids is a SUPER picky eater. We’ll be having this dish again. Simple and delicious! 🙂

I am curious as to the nutrition information. Is it 160 for one taco? Looks fabulous! I’m hoping to make them!
Christine McMichael replied:
Hi, Madison! It is 128 kcal for one taco. Enjoy! 🙂
Mark says:
Just made these for dinner and they were delicious. Due to circumstances, we cooked the chicken in a crock pot, used bleu cheese, omitted the lime and they were still totally great. Thanks!
Christine McMichael replied:
So glad you liked them, Mark! That sounds delicious!
Christina Freeman says:
This was so yummy! My 9 & 12 year olds loved it too! I wasn’t for sure what peppers to use but I found at HEB a package of Mini peppers and chopped up 1 red, 1 yellow, 1 orange, and 1 jalapeno. I also made the Sriracha Shrimp tacos too! Awesome flavor profile!
Christine McMichael replied:
Yay! So glad you guys enjoyed it, Christina! 🙂 That’s exactly what I use, mini peppers. Love it!
Melia says:
Hey there!
What kind of peppers are you referring to? Bell peppers, jalapeno peppers, etc
Christine McMichael replied:
Hi, Melia! I actually used mini peppers (yellow, red, and orange), but a bell pepper works great, too!
Lindsey says:
Oklahoma is a great place to live! Just get ready for these tornadoes & earthquakes! Never a dull moment. Thanks for sharing this yummy recipe & welcome to OK!
