Description

A quick and flavorful recipe for Smash Chicken Caesar Tacos, perfect for a delicious meal.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups cooked, shredded chicken
  • 1/2 cup Caesar dressing
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 8 small flour tortillas
  • 1 cup romaine lettuce, chopped
  • 1/2 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
  • 1/4 cup croutons (optional)
  • Fresh parsley for garnish (optional)

Instructions

  1. In a large mixing bowl, combine the shredded chicken, Caesar dressing, Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, black pepper, and salt. Mix well until the chicken is evenly coated.
  2. Heat a skillet over medium heat. Add the chicken mixture and cook for about 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until heated through.
  3. While the chicken is heating, warm the flour tortillas in a separate skillet or microwave until pliable.
  4. To assemble the tacos, place a generous scoop of the chicken mixture onto each tortilla. Top with chopped romaine lettuce, cherry tomatoes, and croutons if using.
  5. Garnish with fresh parsley if desired. Serve immediately.

Notes

  • For a spicier kick, add sliced jalapeños or a dash of hot sauce to the chicken mixture.
  • Substitute the flour tortillas with corn tortillas for a gluten-free option.
