Ingredients (serves 6):

• 2 lbs. boneless, skinless chicken breasts
• 1 packet taco seasoning (or homemade seasoning)
• 1 cup chicken broth
• 1 can (10 oz.) diced tomatoes with green chilies
• 1 small onion, diced

• Salt and pepper, to taste
• 12 small tortillas (corn or flour)
• Toppings: shredded lettuce, diced tomatoes, shredded cheese, sour cream, guacamole, salsa, etc.
