Rob’s Buffalo Chicken Tacos
Ingredients
- Diced chicken thighs
- BBQ seasoning (your preferred brand or blend)
- Flour tortillas
- Shredded cheese (cheddar, Monterey Jack, or a blend)
- Buffalo sauce
- Ranch dressing
- Fresh chives, finely chopped
Directions
- About one hour before cooking, toss the diced chicken thighs with a generous amount of BBQ seasoning. Let the chicken rest so the seasoning can absorb into the meat.
- Preheat a Blackstone griddle to medium-high heat. Spread the seasoned chicken across the hot surface in a single layer so it has good contact with the griddle. Cook until the chicken is browned and cooked through.
- When the chicken is nearly finished, sprinkle a small handful of shredded cheese directly onto the griddle for each taco.
- Once the cheese begins to bubble and the edges turn golden and crisp, lightly sprinkle it with a small pinch of BBQ seasoning. Place a flour tortilla directly on top of the melted cheese and let it sit for 1–2 minutes so the cheese crisps and adheres to the tortilla.
- Carefully flip the tortilla so the tortilla side is now on the griddle and the crispy cheese layer is facing up. Add a generous portion of the cooked chicken to the center.
- Drizzle buffalo sauce and ranch dressing over the chicken and finish with a sprinkle of finely chopped chives.
- Fold the taco and serve immediately while the cheese crust is still crisp. These tacos are best enjoyed fresh off the griddle.
