Description
Bright, tangy, and deeply satisfying, these Buffalo Chicken Smash Burger Tacos deliver all the spicy-salty punch of buffalo burgers tucked into a soft tortilla, perfect for a weeknight meal.
Ingredients
- 1 pound ground chicken
- 1 tablespoon buffalo sauce
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Oil for cooking
- Tortillas
- 1 cup shredded lettuce
- 1/2 cup ranch dressing
- 1/4 cup chopped green onions
- Additional buffalo sauce for drizzling
Instructions
- Combine the ground chicken with buffalo sauce, salt, and pepper in a bowl until evenly mixed.
- Shape the chicken mixture into small patties roughly the size of the tortillas.
- Heat a skillet over medium-high heat and coat with oil.
- Place one patty on the skillet, press down to smash it onto the tortilla beneath, and cook until golden-brown.
- Mix together the shredded lettuce, ranch dressing, and chopped green onions in a separate bowl.
- Remove smashed chicken patties, place them on warm tortillas, top with ranch slaw, and drizzle with buffalo sauce.
Notes
Preheat the skillet well for better sear and prevent meat from drying out. Use a heavy skillet for even cooking and crisp edges.
