Chicken and Butternut Squash Tacos
Ingredients
  • 1 pound skinless chicken thighs
  • 1 pound butternut squash, cubed
  • 1 yellow onion, sliced
  • 1/2 cup chicken stock
  • 2 tablespoons ground paprika
  • 4 cloves garlic, crushed
  • 2 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt
  • 3 sprigs fresh marjoram, chopped, or more to taste
  • 2 teaspoons onion powder
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1 teaspoon cracked black pepper
  • 1 (15 ounce) can diced tomatoes in juice
Instructions
1
Preheat your oven to a moderate temperature of three hundred degrees Fahrenheit.
2
Then, mix together chicken thighs, butternut squash, an onion, a savory liquid called chicken stock, a blend of spices including paprika, garlic, salt, marjoram, onion powder, garlic powder, oregano, and pepper in a heat-resistant cooking vessel.
3
Next, add a can of tomatoes on top of the mixture.
4
Bake the dish in your preheated oven, covering it with a lid, for approximately one hour and thirty minutes, or until the chicken is tender.
5
After this initial baking time, remove the lid and continue cooking for an additional thirty minutes, allowing most of the butternut squash to blend into a rich sauce.
6
Finally, use two forks to shred the cooked chicken into bite-sized pieces.
