Baked Tacos are one of my favorite things because they are so easy to make and they are incredibly fun. Besides that, there are so many different spins you can make on them. Don’t miss the list at the bottom of the post with all my different twists on baked tacos. In this delicious version, we are combining ground chicken, ranch seasoning, cheese, bacon, lettuce, and tomato for a BLT twist. It is delicious, filling, and a super fun family dinner.
Storing and Reheating Leftovers
These oven-baked tacos are best enjoyed fresh, however, if you have leftovers, you can store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to three days. Reheat them in the oven (covered or wrapped in foil) or air fryer until heated through.
Cook the bacon. Cook until just crisp and remove from the pan. Cook the chicken. Add the ground chicken (you could also use ground turkey) and the ranch seasoning to the pan that the bacon was cooked in and cook until the chicken is no longer pink. Stir in the cream cheese and remove from the heat. Put the tacos together. Divide the meat mixture between the tacos, about a large spoonful for each taco shell. Top each taco with bacon and cheese. Bake the tacos. Bake the tacos for 20 minutes. Remove from the oven and top with tomatoes and lettuce. Enjoy immediately.
As soon as the bacon pieces start to crisp up, take them out of the pan with a slotted spoon and transfer the bacon to a paper towel-lined plate. If you wait until the bacon is fully crispy, it will be overcooked by the time you add it to your recipe.
