Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Prepare the Slaw: In a mixing bowl, combine shredded cabbage, grated carrots, ranch dressing, and dill relish. Stir until well blended, then refrigerate for 15 minutes.

  5. Assemble Tacos: On each warm tortilla, place a chicken patty and top with the creamy ranch slaw.
