A great change from regular Mexican style tacos. A cool summer dinner, made quick with leftover rotisserie chicken. Naturally you can use any type of chicken cooked the way you like; just be sure to shred it for real tacos.

Number Of Ingredients 12

½ cup ranch dressing
¼ cup reduced-fat sour cream
1 (1 ounce) packet taco seasoning mix, divided
1 tablespoon mild chunky salsa
2 cups shredded rotisserie chicken
8 (6 inch) corn tortillas
shredded lettuce
1 tomato, chopped
4 green onions, sliced
1 (4 ounce) can sliced black olives

Steps:

  • Combine ranch dressing, sour cream, 1 teaspoon taco seasoning, and salsa in a small bowl. Cover and refrigerate until serving.
