Chicken Caesar Salad, But Fold It Up And Dunk It!

In other words, my dream come true.

I’ve seen a few videos for this method, and I felt like I needed to give it a try, and I WAS CORRECT. What a genius little dinner invention for people who love chicken caesar salad and want to eat it in every available form (it’s me)!

These are crispy taco-like handhelds, golden and crispy outsides that kind of shatter when you bite into them, with seasoned ground chicken and shreddy Caesar salad + pepperoncini smashed inside?!

Dunked in a Caesar sauce?!?!

Holy smokes! They are so yummy. And so easy.

These fall in the same family as the black bean crispies or the pizza burgers – quick little hitters that require very little from you but actually end up being some of the meals you look forward to most.

Hope you love them!
