These Smashed Chicken Tacos are proof that meal prep doesn’t have to be boring. They’re quick, fun, and full of flavor—plus, they satisfy those taco cravings in the best way possible. So grab your skillet and let’s get smashing!
Season the Chicken: In a mixing bowl, combine the ground chicken with taco seasoning. Mix gently by hand to keep the chicken tender, then divide into four equal portions and roll into balls.
Prep the Tortillas: Lay out your mini tortillas and place a chicken ball in the center of each. Use your hands or a measuring cup to flatten the chicken, spreading it evenly across the tortilla.
Sizzle Time: Heat a large skillet over high heat and drizzle with olive oil. Place each tortilla in the pan, chicken side down. Use a spatula to firmly press the tortilla into the pan for a crispy, golden finish.
Flip & Finish: Cook until the chicken is browned and cooked through, about 3-4 minutes. Flip and cook the tortilla side until it’s beautifully golden and crisp.
Top It Off: Pile on shredded lettuce, fresh pico de gallo, and creamy avocado slices. Serve immediately or store for later!
