Elise Jesse’s Smash Chicken Caesar Tacos

Allow me to introduce you to smash chicken Caesar tacos. Make this recipe once, and you’ll be adding it to your weekly rotation like I have. The seasoned ground chicken is smashed and cooked onto a warm, crispy tortilla before it’s topped with chilled romaine, a creamy Greek yogurt Caesar dressing, crunchy toasted bread crumbs and fresh Parmesan. Think of it as your favorite Caesar salad turned into a cheesy, flavorful taco. I love it for its simplicity, flavor and ease. —Elise Jesse, Cincinnati, Ohio
