Ingredients
- 2 pieces Boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 1 whole (ripe) Mango
- 1 whole Lime
- 8 pieces Corn tortillas
- 0.5 whole Red onion
- 0.25 bunch Cilantro
- 1 whole Jalapeño (optional)
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Chili powder
- 0.5 teaspoons Cumin
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoons Black pepper
Directions
Step 1
Slice the chicken breasts into thin strips for quick and even cooking.
Step 2
In a small bowl, mix olive oil, garlic powder, chili powder, cumin, salt, and black pepper to create a marinade.
Step 3
Coat the chicken strips evenly in the marinade. Let them sit while you prepare the other ingredients.
Step 4
Peel and dice the mango into small cubes. Finely chop the red onion, cilantro, and jalapeño (if using). Combine these in a bowl to make the mango salsa. Squeeze the juice of one lime over the salsa, mix well, and set aside.
Step 5
Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the marinated chicken strips and cook for 6-8 minutes, turning occasionally, until fully cooked and golden brown.
Step 6
Warm the corn tortillas in a dry skillet or over an open flame until pliable, about 30 seconds per side.
Step 7
Assemble the tacos by adding a portion of cooked chicken to each tortilla. Top with mango salsa and additional cilantro if desired.
Step 8
Serve immediately and enjoy your Chicken Mango Tacos!
