10 Taco Recipes That Anyone Would Love

In my opinion, tacos are one of the best foods that you can indulge in. They’re versatile, full of different flavors, and just plain delicious. You might be used to your average ground beef or chicken taco, but trust me, there’s much more out there. This list of delicious taco recipes will have even the pickiest eaters asking for seconds!

1. Chili lime chicken tacos

First on our list of yummy taco recipes are these chili lime chicken tacos. Something I love about any type of taco you make is that it’s completely customizable to your tastes and preferences, and this recipe is no different. Stuff your tortilla with lime and jalapeno marinated chicken, then add your fillings of choice. You can add black beans, corn, avocado, red onion, or fresh cilantro. Top your tacos with sour cream or a creamy avocado dressing and enjoy this tasty dish!

2. Spicy shrimp tacos

The next tasty taco recipe on this list is spicy shrimp tacos! If you’re a seafood and Mexican food lover, then this recipe is perfect for you! This recipe starts by marinating your shrimp in a mixture of garlic, paprika, cumin, and chili, then cook them in a skillet. For toppings, this recipe calls for a simple coleslaw along with a cilantro lime sauce that really takes this dish to the next level. Sprinkle with some lime juice to finish and dig in!

3. Crispy chicken tacos

Forget using diced, shredded, or ground meat for your tacos when you can just use one big piece! This crispy chicken taco recipe is deliciousness all wrapped up in a tortilla, perfect for lunch, dinner, or that late-night craving. You can bread and fry your chicken yourself if you like, but there’s also nothing wrong with using a pre-made breaded chicken tender. After your chicken is cooked, stuff your tortillas with some nice leaves of lettuce and fresh cilantro. Top with your favorite creamy dressing, or make your very own avocado ranch as the recipe suggests!

4. Crispy baked fish tacos

There is definitely a crispy theme when it comes to this list of taco recipes, but who can resist a crunchy, crispy taco? Not me! These crispy baked fish tacos are full of flavor and zest and will surely make anyone happy. You’ll need to coat your fish in panko bread crumbs to bake, then prepare your other toppings. A cilantro-lime slaw would go great with these tacos and would add extra flavors and textures. The great thing about these tacos is they’re a lot lighter than a battered and fried fish taco but are still packed with flavor!

5. Hawaiian pineapple shrimp tacos

I know that a lot of people don’t exactly approve of the whole pineapple on pizza thing, so why not try pineapple on tacos instead? The sweet but savory dish is a perfect recipe that doesn’t require too much time and effort to make, as long as you have all the ingredients. With this recipe, all you have to do is throw your shrimp and pineapple on a sheet pan, and toss it into the oven. You obviously can’t forget your spices and toppings, such as corn, cilantro, avocado, and lime juice. For a finishing touch, drizzle on your favorite sauce to add even more tanginess. 

6. Chipotle lime cauliflower tacos

Since not everyone eats meat, I thought it would be nice to share a vegetarian recipe! These chipotle lime cauliflower tacos will stun you with how delicious they are. You’ll need to start by roasting some cauliflower with lime juice, chipotle, honey, garlic, and salt until the cauliflower is tender and brown. After that, the hard part is basically over! You’ll just need to build your tacos and stuff everything into your tortillas! Top with cheese, beans, cabbage, cilantro, or jalapenos and enjoy!

7. Spicy shredded beef tacos

There’s nothing much tastier than a beef taco, no matter what form it’s in. These spicy shredded beef tacos are no different and I’m sure you’ll enjoy every bite! Get started by cooking a seasoned chuck roast, then adding tomato paste, beef stock, cumin, and green chiles. Once the meat is finally cooked, shred it with two forks and stuff into your taco shells! Top with some shredded cheese, cilantro, tomato, and anything else you prefer!

Fill your tacos with diced onion, fresh cilantro, and lime juice. You won’t be able to resist these delicious tacos!
