Ingredients
Method
Prepare the Chicken
- In a bowl, season the chicken breasts with garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper.
- In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the chicken and cook for about 6-7 minutes on each side until cooked through and golden brown.
- Once cooked, remove the chicken from the skillet and let it rest for a few minutes before smashing it with a fork.
Make the Dill Pickle Ranch Sauce
- In a small bowl, mix together the ranch dressing, finely chopped dill pickles, and dill until well combined.
Prepare the Crispy Cheese
- In the same skillet used for the chicken, reduce heat to medium and add a small amount of shredded cheddar cheese in a circle shape. Cook for 2-3 minutes until the cheese melts and edges are crispy.
- Remove the crispy cheese from the skillet and set aside. Repeat with remaining cheese.
Assemble the Tacos
- Warm the corn tortillas in a dry skillet for about 30 seconds on each side.
- Spread a generous amount of the dill pickle ranch sauce on each tortilla.
- Add a portion of smashed chicken on top of the sauce, followed by shredded lettuce and diced tomatoes.
- Top each taco with a piece of crispy cheese.
Serve
- Serve the tacos immediately while the cheese is crispy.

Notes
For extra flavor, consider adding avocado slices or jalapeños to the tacos. You can also use grilled chicken instead of pan-fried for a healthier option.
