Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 1 pound chicken breast, diced
  • 1 cup dill pickles, chopped
  • ½ cup ranch dressing
  • 8 pieces taco shells
  • 2 cups shredded lettuce
  • 1 cup cheddar cheese, shredded
  • 1 piece tomato, diced
  • ½ cup onion, finely chopped
  • Fresh cilantro, for garnish

Method
 

Preparation
  1. In a large skillet, heat a tablespoon of oil over medium heat. Add the diced chicken breast and cook until it’s browned and cooked through, about 7-10 minutes.
  2. Once the chicken is cooked, reduce the heat and add the chopped dill pickles and ranch dressing to the skillet. Stir everything together until well combined and heated through.
  3. Take the taco shells and fill them with the dill pickle ranch chicken mixture. Top with shredded lettuce, cheddar cheese, diced tomatoes, and chopped onions.
  4. Finish with a sprinkle of fresh cilantro for that extra pop of flavor. Serve immediately while the tacos are warm and crispy.

Notes

To ensure that your Dill Pickle Ranch Smash Chicken Tacos are a hit, consider using ground chicken or turkey for a twist. Avoid overfilling the taco shells to prevent them from breaking. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days, and reheat gently.
