To make these Crispy Chicken Tacos, you will need the following ingredients per serving:

- 2 small flour tortillas
- 1/2 cup shredded lettuce
- 1/4 cup diced tomatoes
- 1/4 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 1/4 cup sour cream
- 1/4 cup salsa
- 1/2 pound boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon paprika
- 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
- 1/2 cup buttermilk
- 1/2 cup panko breadcrumbs
- Vegetable oil for frying

To start, mix together the flour, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, paprika, and cayenne pepper in a shallow dish. In another shallow dish, pour the buttermilk. In a third shallow dish, place the panko breadcrumbs.
Cut the chicken breasts into strips and coat them in the flour mixture, then dip them in the buttermilk, and finally coat them in the panko breadcrumbs. Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Once the oil is hot, add the chicken strips and cook for 3-4 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and crispy.
To assemble the tacos, warm the tortillas in a dry skillet over medium heat. Place the shredded lettuce, diced tomatoes, and shredded cheddar cheese on top of the tortillas. Add the crispy chicken strips on top of the vegetables. Drizzle with sour cream and salsa.
These Crispy Chicken Tacos are a perfect combination of crispy, juicy, and flavorful. The chicken is perfectly seasoned and fried to a golden brown, while the fresh vegetables and tangy sauce add a burst of flavor and texture. This dish is perfect for a quick and easy weeknight dinner or a fun weekend meal with friends and family.
