Ingredients



1/3 cup mild cayenne pepper sauce (such as Frank’s Red Hot Sauce, not Tabasco sauce)
1 teaspoon corn oil
2 cups (about 10 ounces) diced cooked chicken breast
4 (8 inch) tortillas, warmed if desired
1/2 cup (2 ounces) finely shredded Monterey Jack cheese
1 cup finely chopped lettuce
2 tablespoons + 2 teaspoons light ranch dressing

Directions

Put cayenne pepper sauce and oil in a large zip-top bag. Add cooked chicken, seal bag, and shake to coat chicken well.

Refrigerate for 30 minutes to allow chicken to marinate.

Pour chicken and sauce in a microwave-safe dish, cover, and heat 2 minutes or until hot (or pour chicken and marinade in a pan and warm on the stove over medium heat).

Lay 4 flour tortillas on the counter. Spoon 1/4 of chicken in the center of each one. Drizzle with the warm marinade if you want to. Top each with 1/4 of the cheese and 1/4 of the lettuce. Drizzle each with 1/4 of the dressing.

Fold each taco in half, or roll it up. Slice in half if you want to.
