  • 20 g shredded Parmesan cheese

  • 8 street taco flour tortillas (such as Mission Zero Net Carb)

  • 35 g nonfat Greek yogurt

  • 3 tablespoons Olive Garden dressing

  • Salt, black pepper, onion powder, garlic powder (to taste)

  • 2 cups chopped lettuce

directions

Step 1: Prepare the Chicken

In a medium bowl, combine ground chicken with salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and Parmesan cheese. Divide the mixture into 8 equal portions (about 2 oz each).


Place one portion on each tortilla and use your hands to evenly smash and spread the chicken across the surface.


Step 2: Cook the Tacos

Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, spray with pan spray. Working in batches, place 3–4 tacos meat-side down in the pan and cook for about 3 minutes. Flip and cook the tortilla side for another 2 minutes, until golden and crisp. Remove and repeat with the remaining tacos.


Step 3: Make the Dressing

In a small bowl, mix Greek yogurt, Olive Garden dressing, Parmesan, and seasonings. Toss with chopped lettuce until evenly coated.


Step 4: Assemble the Tacos

Top each taco with a scoop of Caesar-dressed lettuce. Finish with extra shredded Parmesan and crumbled croutons.


Serve immediately and enjoy!
