In my head, I’m
always thinking about the next meal. I’m a serious foodie and I’m not afraid to
admit it. Life is all about the food we eat, really. I’m also always thinking
about budgeting and getting the most for my dollar. I try to make meals that
will stretch to lunch the next day or even transform into a different meal
entirely. I decided, grudgingly, to share this Rogers family favorite with you
today. It’s nothing fancy, it doesn’t come with bells or whistles, but then you
eat it and you cry happy tears for three straight days.
Buffalo Chicken Tacos
You will need:
- Chicken, cubed
- Flour
- S + P
- Buffalo Hot Sauce (I use Frank’s)
- Corn Tortillas
- Toppings: Lettuce, Tomato, Green
Onion, Cheese, Ranch Dressing, Avocado
Once you have cubed
your chicken, season it with salt and pepper, maybe even some cayenne if you’re
really feeling sassy. Coat the chicken with a generous punch of flour. Cook in
olive oil. Once cooked, drench in buffalo hot sauce. This is where you can
control the heat. If you’re a lightweight, go light, if you’re feeling
dangerous, give those babies a bath.
Warm your corn
tortillas, and top with all the goodness that is a buffalo chicken taco. I have
listed my favorite toppings, but you can let your creative juices flow right
about now. The more the merrier, really.
I usually will make
extra chicken and save half of it for a buffalo chicken SALAD the next day.
Basically all the same yummy, with a different look. Try this one, tonight.
Show it off at the next friend dinner. Make it while you’re home alone and eat
it all before anyone else can try to have a bite. Whatever your method, I
support it. Dig in!
These are my favorite things...ever! So easy and totally delicious!
