Chicken breasts or a whole chicken work too. The full method is in the pollo asado recipe (link above and in recipe card).<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"schema-faq-section\" id=\"faq-question-1785300003\"><strong class=\"schema-faq-question\">Corn or flour tortillas for tacos?<\/strong> <\/p>\n<p class=\"schema-faq-answer\">Corn tortillas are traditional for street tacos and hold up to the juicy grilled chicken, so warm them until soft and double them up.

Full grill, oven, and stovetop methods can be found in the pollo asado recipe post.<\/li>\n<li id=\"instruction-step-2\"><b>Warm the tortillas.<\/b> Brush a well-seasoned cast-iron skillet or griddle with a little oil over medium-high heat. Warm each tortilla about 30 seconds per side, brushing lightly with oil as needed, until it is bendable and the corn flavor comes out.<\/li>\n<li id=\"instruction-step-3\"><b>Keep tortillas warm.<\/b> Stack the warm tortillas on a plate lined with a kitchen towel and then foil, closing it back up each time you add more to trap the heat and steam. A tortilla warmer works too.<\/li>\n<li id=\"instruction-step-4\"><b>Assemble the tacos.<\/b> Stack two warmed tortillas, slightly overlapping, and add a few slices of chicken.
