Jalapeño Chicken Smashed Tacos

Ingredients

• 1 pound ground chicken
• 1/2 cup finely chopped jalapeños
• 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1 tablespoon taco seasoning
• 3/4 teaspoon salt
• 1 1/2 cups shredded cheddar cheese, divided
• 10 small flour tortillas
• 2–3 tablespoons Cilantro & Roasted Onion Infused Olive Oil

Directions

1. In a large bowl, combine the ground chicken, jalapeños, garlic powder, taco seasoning, salt, and 3/4 cup of the shredded cheddar cheese.
2. Divide the chicken mixture evenly among the tortillas, spreading it in a thin layer all the way to the edges.
3. Heat a griddle or large skillet over medium-high heat and lightly coat it with Cilantro & Roasted Onion Infused Olive Oil.
4. Working in batches if necessary, place the tacos chicken-side down on the hot griddle. Cook undisturbed for 4–5 minutes, until the chicken is cooked through and the exterior is golden brown and slightly crispy.
5. Flip and cook for an additional 1–2 minutes, until the tortilla is lightly toasted.
6. Top with the remaining cheddar cheese and serve with your favorite toppings, such as shredded lettuce, sour cream, diced onion, salsa, or avocado.
