How to Make Chicken Caesar Smashed Tacos

Ingredients

1 pound ground chicken or ground turkey
2 teaspoons minced garlic
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon pepper
8 medium 50/50 mix tortillas (corn/whole wheat)
1/2 tablespoon avocado oil (for oiling pan)
2 cups finely chopped romaine lettuce
1/3 cup feta cheese
1/2 tablespoon lemon juice
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
2 teaspoons minced garlic
1/2 cup plain Greek yogurt
2 teaspoons dijon mustard
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper

Directions

Mix the ground chicken, garlic, salt, and pepper in a large mixing bowl.
Scoop about 1/4 cup of the mixture onto a tortilla and smash it with a fork, spreading it evenly across the tortilla.
Heat the avocado oil in a pan over medium-high heat.
Place the tortilla chicken-side down in the pan and cook for 4-5 minutes.
Flip the tortilla and cook for another 1-2 minutes.
Repeat with the remaining tortillas, working in batches of 2-3 if possible!
Meanwhile, whisk or shake the dressing ingredients together.
Top each cooked chicken tortilla with finely chopped romaine, a drizzle of the dressing, and feta cheese crumbles. Enjoy!

How to Serve Chicken Caesar Smashed Tacos

Serve the Chicken Caesar Smashed Tacos warm. You can add extra toppings such as avocado slices or diced tomatoes if you like. These tacos are perfect for a casual meal or a fun get-together with family and friends.

How to Store Chicken Caesar Smashed Tacos

If you have leftovers, store the cooked tacos in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 2 days. To reheat, place them in a pan over medium heat until warmed through. Keep the toppings separate to maintain their freshness.

Tips to Make Chicken Caesar Smashed Tacos

Make sure to smash the chicken mixture evenly on the tortilla for even cooking.
