InĀ previous post, I showed one of the recipes I grew up with, Ranch Chicken. This is a very different variation with using creamy ranch dressing and taking the chicken south of the border to the Rancho.
A delicious lunch or dinner.
I tried it with theĀ cotija cheese and it didn’t work that well. Stick to the one in the recipe.
A quick mix of the dressing.
Ranch Chicken Tacos

Ingredients:
- 1/2 cup ranch dressing
- 1/4 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
