Chicken Caesar Smash Tacos

Thin layers of ground chicken pressed onto mini tortillas and seared, then piled with romaine, Parmesan, croutons and a garlicky Caesar dressing.

Ingredients

  • 2 lbs minced chicken
  • 10 mini tortillas
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Oil for cooking
  • For the Caesar dressing — 1 cup mayonnaise
  • For the Caesar dressing — 2 tsp Dijon mustard
  • For the Caesar dressing — Salt, to taste
  • For the Caesar dressing — 3 tbsp olive oil
  • For the Caesar dressing — 1 tsp Worcestershire sauce
  • For the Caesar dressing — 2 tsp lemon juice
  • For the Caesar dressing — 2-3 cloves garlic, freshly minced
  • For the Caesar dressing — 1 tsp black pepper
  • For the Caesar salad — 1 large romaine lettuce, diced
  • For the Caesar salad — 1/3 cup parmesan cheese, shredded or shaved
  • For the Caesar salad — 1 cup croutons

Instructions

  1. Prepare the chicken: divide the minced chicken into 10 equal portions. Place 2-3 tablespoons of ground chicken in the center of each tortilla, pressing down gently to create an even layer. Sprinkle with salt and black pepper.
  2. Cook the tacos: heat a skillet over high heat with a small amount of oil. Place the tortillas, meat side down, in the skillet and cook over medium-low heat for 2-3 minutes or until cooked through. Flip the tacos and cook the other side until crispy and golden.
  3. Make the Caesar dressing: in a bowl, whisk together mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, Worcestershire sauce, lemon juice, garlic, salt, and black pepper. Slowly pour in olive oil while whisking until the dressing is smooth and emulsified.
  4. Assemble the tacos: top each cooked taco with diced romaine lettuce, shaved parmesan cheese, and croutons. Drizzle the Caesar dressing over the top of each taco.
  5. Serve immediately.
