Ingredients

  • 2 cups shredded chicken I use rotisserie chicken
  • cup buffalo wing sauce
  • 8-12 corn tortillas depending on if you want 2 or 3 tacos per serving
  • 1 celery stalk finely chopped
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • ½ cup crumbled blue cheese
  • 2 tablespoon canola oil

Instructions

  • In a bowl, combine the shredded chicken and buffalo sauce.
  • Assemble each taco by placing desired amount of chicken on one half of each corn tortilla. Be careful not to overfill - a good amount is ~2-3 tbsp. It can be hard to measure so just use your judgment!
  • Top with a sprinkle of celery, mozzarella cheese, and blue cheese crumbles.
  • In a large skillet heat oil over medium heat.
  • Add the tacos, cheese side down, and cook for 3-4 minutes on each side. Sometimes at first the top part of the tortillas have a hard time staying down. To assist with this, either use warmed up tortillas, or place a wood spatula on top of each one to weigh them down.
  • Serve with blue cheese or ranch dressing.
  • Enjoy!
