Ingredients

6 oz Realgood lightly breaded chicken fillets, weighed frozen; divide the heated batch equally among three tacos
3 La Banderita Carb Counter Street Taco tortillas (avocado-oil 14-count pack shown)
1 tbsp homemade high-protein Caesar dressing (1 tsp per taco); another sauce changes the nutrition
1½ tbsp Trader Joe’s Hot Honey Mustard condiment (½ tbsp per taco; not the refrigerated dressing)
Optional: 1 tbsp DeLallo chopped Calabrian chilies (1 tsp per taco)

Allergens: wheat, dairy, eggs, fish, mustard. Check the current packages for allergen statements; chicken and sauce formulations may change.

Method

1.COOK THE CHICKEN. Prepare the fillets according to the directions on the actual package. The footage begins with cooked chicken; no creator-specific time or temperature was supplied.
2.LAY OUT THE TORTILLAS. Set out the three La Banderita street taco tortillas.
3.SLICE THE CHICKEN. Slice the cooked fillets into strips.
4.SPREAD CAESAR. Spread 1 teaspoon of protein Caesar on each tortilla, then divide the cooked chicken from the 6 oz frozen-weight batch evenly among the three tacos. Each gets a 2 oz pre-heating weight equivalent.
5.DRIZZLE MUSTARD. Add ½ tablespoon Trader Joe’s Hot Honey Mustard to each taco.
6.OPTIONAL CHILI + SERVE. Add up to 1 teaspoon chopped Calabrian chilies to each taco if desired. Fold and serve.

Keys to success

Use the actual chicken package's cooking directions; this recipe does not specify an unsupported time or temperature.
Do not add separate honey. Trader Joe’s Hot Honey Mustard is a condiment; it is different from the refrigerated Hot Honey Mustard Dressing.

Estimated nutrition

~510 cal | ~44g protein per 3 tacos (one lunch portion; estimate includes optional chilies).

Rounded estimate for all 3 tacos: about 510 calories / 44g protein with the optional 1 tbsp DeLallo chilies, or about 450 calories / 44g without. Uses 6 oz frozen-weight Realgood chicken, 3 tortillas, stated Caesar and measured mustard. The Caesar recipe uses an approximate saved yield, the chicken label was not supplied in the package, and actual product labels and sauce substitutions can change the estimate. No total fat or carbohydrate figure is asserted.

Three keys to success

1Chicken is weighed frozen before heating: use the complete 6 oz batch and divide the cooked chicken evenly among the three tacos. Each taco represents one-third of the frozen-weight batch, not 2 oz cooked chicken.
2Use the actual chicken package's cooking directions; this recipe does not specify an unsupported time or temperature.
3Do not add separate honey. Trader Joe’s Hot Honey Mustard is a condiment; it is different from the refrigerated Hot Honey Mustard Dressing.
