Tailgating Tuesdays: Buffalo Chicken Tacos

For some reason, buffalo sauce and football go hand in hand. I'm not sure why. All I know is you are going to want to make these tacos for your next football party. They took me 15 minutes from start to finish, are super easy to throw together at the last minute, and they're very guy-friendly.  Try them out!

Ingredients (makes 10 tacos):
1 lb skinless, boneless chicken breasts, cut into 1 inch pieces
1/3 cup flour
3 Tbsp cornstarch
1 tsp garlic powder, or garlic salt if you don't have any
1/3 cup your favorite buffalo wing sauce (we used HEB brand medium and will probably use mild next time. They were hot!)
1 Tbsp olive oil
your favorite tortillas- we used white corn

Toppings:
cilantro
avocado slices
chopped green onions
ranch dressing
optional: shredded lettuce (I didn't have any on hand, so I left this out)

Directions:
1. In a medium bowl, combine flour, cornstarch, and garlic powder. Season the chicken pieces with pepper, then dredge in flour mixture.
2. Place a pan on the stove over medium-high heat and add olive oil. Once hot, add chicken and cook on both sides (about 3-4 minutes per side).
3.  Once done, set chicken aside in a bowl and toss with buffalo sauce.
4. Place buffalo chicken pieces in tortillas and add toppings as desired. Enjoy!
