Ingredients

(Makes 6 small tacos)

  • 500g chicken mince
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
  • 6 small tortillas or wraps
  • 4–5 leaves of cos lettuce, chopped
  • 4 slices of bacon, cooked and chopped
  • Feta cheese or parmesan cheese
  • Caesar dressing, to taste
  • Olive oil or cooking spray for frying

1. Prepare the Chicken Mixture

In a mixing bowl, combine the chicken mince with garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Mix well until evenly seasoned.

2. Smash the Tacos

Divide the chicken mixture into six equal portions. Place a tortilla on a clean surface and spread a portion of the chicken mince evenly on one side. Press it down firmly so it sticks to the tortilla.

3. Cook the Tacos

Heat a pan over medium heat and lightly grease it with oil. Place the tortilla chicken-side down and cook for about 3–4 minutes until golden brown and crispy. Flip and cook the other side for another minute until the tortilla is lightly toasted.

4. Assemble the Tacos

Remove the tacos from the pan and let them cool slightly. Top each taco with chopped cos lettuce, crispy bacon bits, a generous drizzle of Caesar dressing and a sprinkle of fata cheese or parmesan cheese.

5. Serve & Enjoy!

Fold the tacos slightly and serve immediately.
