Steps

1Heat a skillet to medium-high heat.
2Add the ground chicken to the skillet. Brown the meat, breaking it up as it cooks. Once the meat has started to brown, add the garlic, diced onion, and diced bell pepper. Continue to brown the meat until it is no longer pink and the onion and veggies become tender.
3Next, lower the heat to medium and add the apple cider vinegar, ground cumin, chili powder, chipotle powder, paprika, oregano, crushed red pepper flakes, salt, and arrowroot starch to ground meat. Cook for 1 minute until the spices are fragrant.
4Next, add the black beans and chicken broth and stir until well combined. Let the ground chicken mixture simmer a bit in the broth until thickened and then remove from the heat.
5Next, assemble the tacos and enjoy!
