1
Brine the Chicken
In a bowl, combine the sweet tea and chicken breast. Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or overnight for best flavor.
2
Cook the Chicken
Preheat the grill to medium-high heat. Remove the chicken from the brine, pat dry, and grill for about 6-7 minutes on each side or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F. Brush with barbecue sauce in the last few minutes of grilling.
3
Prepare Additional Ingredients
While the chicken is grilling, cook the bacon until crispy. Slice the radishes and avocado. Combine the ranch dressing with mashed avocado to create the avocado ranch.
4
Assemble the Tacos
Once the chicken is cooked, let it rest for a few minutes before slicing it into strips. In each taco shell, layer shredded lettuce, sliced chicken, crumbled bacon, sliced radishes, and drizzle with avocado ranch.
5
Serve
Serve the tacos immediately with extra barbecue sauce on the side if desired.
