Ingredients

• 270 g Extra-lean ground chicken
• 2 tsp Garlic powder
• 1 tsp Onion powder
• 2 tsp Salt
• 1 tsp Black pepper
• 90 g Mini tortillas
• 2 tbsp Greek yogurt (For the Caesar dressing)
• 1 tbsp Low-fat mayonnaise (For the Caesar dressing)
• 2 tsp Dijon mustard (For the Caesar dressing)
• 1 tsp Worcestershire sauce (For the Caesar dressing)
• 0.25 Lemon (For the Caesar dressing; juice from one-quarter lemon)
• 2 Garlic cloves (Minced or grated for the Caesar dressing)
• Salt (For the Caesar dressing, to taste)
• Black pepper (For the Caesar dressing, to taste)

• 0.5 tbsp Parmesan cheese (For the Caesar salad)

Steps

1. 1

   In a bowl, combine the extra-lean ground chicken, garlic powder, onion powder, 2 teaspoons salt, and 1 teaspoon black pepper. Mix until the seasonings are evenly distributed throughout the chicken.

2. 2

   Place one mini tortilla on a work surface. Spread approximately 90 g of the chicken mixture evenly over the tortilla. If the mixture sticks to your hands, wet your hands with water. Repeat with the remaining tortillas and chicken mixture.

3. 3

   Heat a cooking surface over medium-high heat. Place the tacos chicken-side down and cook until the chicken develops a golden sear.

4. 4

   Flip the tacos and cook until the tortillas are crisp.

5. 5

   Prepare the Caesar dressing by combining the Greek yogurt, low-fat mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, Worcestershire sauce, lemon, minced or grated garlic, and salt and black pepper to taste. Mix until combined. The recipe states that half of the dressing will be used.

6. 6

   Make the Caesar salad by combining the shredded romaine lettuce, Parmesan cheese, and half of the prepared Caesar dressing. Toss until the lettuce is coated.

7. 7

   Assemble the tacos by topping the seared chicken tortillas with the Caesar salad. Serve and enjoy.
