Fried Chicken Caesar Salad Tacos

Since we saw Josh Elkin share this chicken caesar taco, we knew we had to give it a go. The result? A crispy chicken taco shell, filled with fresh creamy caesar salad and hit up with some big A&O flavours. Heaven on a plate for flavour chasers!


*Tongs are your best mate here. Use them to hold the chicken in place as it cooks in the deep fat fryer. The key is to get it nice and crispy whilst folded which helps hold the taco shape. 

ingredients

  • 2 chicken breasts, flattened out with a meat mallot
  • 2 cups all purpose flour
  • 2 tbsp Hella Nashty seasoning
  • 2 cups buttermilk 
  • 1/4 cup Worcestershire sauce
  • 2 cups chopped romaine lettuce
  • 2 slices of sourdough bread, cut into croutons

For the dressing:

  • 1 cup mayonnaise
  • Juice of a lemon
  • 2 tbsp Dijon mustard
  • 1/2 cup grated parmesan cheese
  • 2 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 tbsp minced garlic
  • 1 tsp black pepper
  • 1/2 cup bacon bits for garnish

Directions

  1. In a shallow bowl or container, combine the flour and Hella Nashty Seasoning.
  2. In a separate bowl combine the buttermilk and Worcestershire sauce
  3. Dip the flattened chicken in the buttermilk and then into the flour.
  4. Place the chicken flat into the deep fat fryer. After 2 minutes, use tongs to fold the chicken in half and keep them in place whilst the chicken crisps up (around 8-10 minutes). When it’s golden, crispy and holding its shape, remove from the frier and set aside, allowing any excess fat to drain.  
  5. To make the caesar dressing, combine all the ingredients together in a bowl and mix thoroughly. 
  6. Add the salad to the chicken tortillas, followed by a drizzle of dressing, top with the bacon bits and a final drizzle of the caesar dressing.
