Equipment

Baking sheet
Parchment paper
Medium-sized bowl
Two forks (for shredding chicken)
Measuring cups and spoons
Knife and cutting board for chopping

Ingredients

1 lb boneless, skinless chicken breasts
½ cup buffalo sauce
4 large keto-friendly tortillas approx. 8-inch/20cm
¼ cup sour cream
½ cup shredded cheddar cheese
¼ cup diced celery
¼ cup diced red onion
½ avocado, sliced 100g
¼ cup fresh cilantro, chopped
1 tbsp olive oil
Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Place the chicken breasts on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Drizzle with olive oil, and season with salt and pepper. Bake for 20 minutes or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).
While the chicken is cooking, prepare the keto-friendly tortillas according to the package instructions or use homemade ones.
Once the chicken is cooked, let it rest for a few minutes, then shred it using two forks.
In a medium-sized bowl, mix the shredded chicken with buffalo sauce until well coated.
To assemble the tacos, lay out the tortillas and evenly distribute the buffalo chicken among them.
Top each taco with shredded cheddar cheese, diced celery, diced red onion, avocado slices, and a dollop of sour cream.
Garnish with fresh cilantro and serve immediately for the best flavor and texture.

Notes

To save time, you can use pre-cooked rotisserie chicken and simply toss it with the buffalo sauce. For extra heat, add a few dashes of hot sauce to the buffalo sauce mixture. The nutritional information is approximate and can vary based on specific brands of ingredients used.
