Ingredients
 
 

  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 small yellow onion minced
  • 4 garlic cloves minced
  • 1 pound ground chicken
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1 tsp black pepper
  • 1 tsp sweet paprika
  • 1 tsp chili flakes
  • 2 jars (8 oz/220 g) taco sauce mild or spicy
  • 14 ounces sharp cheddar cheese

Instructions
 

  • Get your prep done before you start cooking. Mince the garlic cloves and finely chop the onion. Grate the cheddar and mozzarella, set aside.
  • Heat oil in a skillet over medium low. Add onion and garlic, cook until translucent, about 3 minutes. Add ground chicken, break up into pieces and cook until brown and no longer pink in the middle. Stir in salt, pepper, paprika and chili flakes. Add taco sauce and bring to a simmer.
