Ingredients
Scale
- 500 g ground chicken
- 2 tsp garlic powder
- Salt and freshly cracked black pepper
- 8 small flour tortillas
- ½ head romaine lettuce, chopped
- ⅓ cup Caesar dressing
- ½ cup grated Parmesan
- 3 tbsp bacon bits
Instructions
- Combine the ground chicken, garlic powder, salt, and pepper in a mixing bowl. Stir until everything is evenly seasoned.
- Take each tortilla and press a thin, smooth layer of the chicken mixture onto the outside surface. Make sure it’s packed down so it adheres well.
- Warm a skillet over medium–high heat and add a small amount of avocado oil. Lay the tortillas in chicken-side down and cook for about 2–3 minutes, or until the meat turns golden brown and fully cooked through. Flip and let the tortilla side toast until crisp.
- Load each taco with chopped romaine, a drizzle of Caesar dressing, a sprinkle of Parmesan, and a handful of crunchy bacon bits. If you prefer, toss the salad ingredients together first and then pile it on top.
- Fold, bite, and enjoy the irresistible combo of crispy chicken and cool Caesar goodness in every mouthful.
