Instructions

Mix ground chicken with garlic powder, black pepper, and salt. Form into 6 balls and flatten into disks sized for the tortillas.
Heat a skillet over medium-high heat with a bit of oil. Warm tortillas on each side briefly to soften, then set aside.
Place a tortilla in the skillet, top with a chicken patty, press down with parchment and a spatula to flatten. Cook for 2–3 minutes, then flip and cook another 2–3 minutes until chicken is cooked through.
Top cooked chicken side with mozzarella and Parmesan. Cover skillet for 1–2 minutes to melt cheese.
Transfer taco to plate. Spread Caesar dressing on top, then add romaine lettuce, more Parmesan, and lemon juice.
Garnish with optional croutons, anchovy paste, or parsley. Serve immediately.

Notes

Use ground turkey, beef, or plant-based meat as alternatives to chicken.
Warm tortillas before cooking to avoid cracking.
Top with extra dressing or lemon juice for added flavor.
