sour cream

🥗Healthier: Greek yogurt

💰Cheaper: plain yogurt

Greek yogurt reduces calories while maintaining creaminess

shredded cheese

🥗Healthier: nutritional yeast

💰Cheaper: processed cheese

Nutritional yeast is lower in fat and adds a cheesy flavor.

Preheat a very large skillet over medium-high heat.

Cut boneless, skinless chicken thighs into bite-sized pieces or cubes.

Pour about 2 tablespoons of pre-made buffalo sauce over the chicken pieces and coat them well.

Add the coated chicken to the hot skillet in a single layer.

Let the chicken cook for 4 to 5 minutes without touching it.

After 5 minutes, stir the chicken in the pan and continue to cook for 3 to 5 more minutes until fully cooked through.

Turn off the heat and add the rest of the buffalo sauce to the chicken, mixing until it is nicely saucy.

Assemble the tacos by placing buffalo chicken in taco shells, then add lettuce and tomato.

Top with ranch dressing.
