High Protein McChicken Smash Tacos
A healthier, high-protein alternative to the classic McChicken, using ground chicken pressed onto tortillas with a tangy sauce.
Ingredients
- 500g ground chicken
- 2 tsp garlic powder
- Salt and black pepper, to taste
- 8 small flour tortillas (I used 4 medium)
- 1/2 cup breadcrumbs
- 1 cup shredded iceberg lettuce
- 1/4 cup light mayonnaise
- 1/4 cup miracle whip (I didn’t use this, still tasted insane)
Instructions
- In a small bowl, mix together the light mayonnaise and Miracle Whip until smooth. Set aside.
- In a medium bowl, mix ground chicken with garlic powder, black pepper, and salt.
- Press a thin layer of seasoned chicken onto the back of each flour tortilla, making sure it covers the surface evenly. Then sprinkle on the breadcrumbs for that added crunch factor.
- Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat with a little avocado oil. Place the tortilla chicken-side down and cook for 3-4 minutes until the chicken is golden and fully cooked. Flip and crisp up the tortilla side for another 2-3 minutes.
- Spread a generous amount of McChicken sauce over the crispy chicken, top with shredded lettuce.
- Fold it up like a taco, take a bite, and enjoy!
