Instructions
Creating Smash Chicken Caesar Tacos is straightforward when you follow these clear steps:
1. Prepare the Chicken: Season the chicken breasts with olive oil, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and pepper.
2. Cook the Chicken: Heat a skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the seasoned chicken and cook for about 6-7 minutes on each side, or until fully cooked (internal temperature should reach 165°F/75°C).
3. Shred the Chicken: Once the chicken is cooked, let it rest for a few minutes. Then, use two forks to shred the chicken into bite-sized pieces.
4. Warm the Tortillas: In the same skillet, gently heat the tortillas for about 30 seconds on each side until they are warm and pliable.
5. Combine Ingredients: In a mixing bowl, combine the shredded chicken with Caesar dressing, mixing well until the chicken is thoroughly coated.
6. Assemble the Tacos: On each tortilla, place a generous amount of the chicken mixture, then add chopped romaine lettuce and a sprinkle of Parmesan cheese.
7. Top with Extras: If desired, add croutons for crunch and more dressing according to your taste preference.
8. Garnish and Serve: Top with fresh parsley for a touch of color and extra flavor.
