  • 1/4 small red onion diced
  • 10 hard taco shells
  • 1 cup cheddar cheese shredded
  • 1 cups Monterey Jack cheese shredded

    2 cups shredded chicken, 1 cup BBQ Sauce, 6-8 slices bacon, 1/4 small red onion
  • Place the hard shell tacos into the baking dish. (This works best by lining up 8 in a row and then placing the last two on the side of the 8 lined up.)
    10 hard taco shells
  • Divide the chicken mixture between the taco shells. Combine the shredded cheeses and then divide them among the tacos, topping them.
    1 cup cheddar cheese, 1 cups Monterey Jack cheese
