Pregnancy guidance

Safe with precautions

Soft shell chicken tacos are safe with precautions during pregnancy when the chicken is fully cooked to 165°F. They deliver lean poultry protein, folate, and calcium from melted pasteurized cheese to support fetal tissue formation. Avoid chicken that appears pink or undercooked to prevent foodborne illness from Salmonella. Pair with freshly washed lettuce and homemade pico de gallo for extra vitamins and fiber.
