Ingredients
- 4 chicken breasts cut into bite-sized pieces
- 1 teaspoon olive oil
- 1.25 ounces taco seasoning (2 tablespoons homemade)
- ½ cup ranch dressing
- 8 soft taco flour tortillas or hard taco shells
Toppings
- ranch dressing
- lettuce shredded
- tomatoes diced
- cheddar cheese shredded
- avocado chopped
Instructions
- Place a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the olive oil to the pan.
- Once the oil is hot, add the chopped chicken and cook until browned and no longer pink inside.
- Sprinkle the taco seasoning over the chicken. DO NOT add water!
- Stir the chicken. Cook for 5 minutes until the taco seasoning coats the chicken and sticks to the pieces.
- Add the ranch dressing and stir until well combined. Cook for another 3 minutes
- Fill the tortillas or taco shells with chicken. We like to top our tacos with lettuce, tomatoes, cheese, and a little drizzle of ranch dressing. Feel free to add any taco toppings you enjoy!
Cup of Yum
Notes
- Want to make this recipe lower carb? Serve the chicken over chopped lettuce, top with taco toppings, and then drizzle with ranch dressing for a taco salad! You'll have enough chicken for 4 salads.
