  3. Assemble the tacos
    • Spoon a generous amount of the crack chicken mixture onto each tortilla.
    • Add optional toppings like sliced green onions, diced tomatoes, avocado slices, sour cream, or a drizzle of hot sauce.
  4. Serve immediately
    • Serve warm and enjoy these messy, creamy, cheesy tacos right away!

Tips for Best Results

  • Use rotisserie chicken for super quick prep.
  • For extra flavor, sprinkle a little extra cheddar on top and broil for 1–2 minutes until bubbly.
  • Make it low-carb by serving in lettuce wraps instead of tortillas.
