Ingredients
- 1 pound chicken breast
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 tablespoons lime juice
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon ground cumin
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1 teaspoon chili powder
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 12 small corn tortillas
- 1 small red onion
- 0.5 cup fresh cilantro
- 1 avocado
- 4 lime wedges
- 0 to taste hot sauce
Directions
Step 1
Cut the chicken breast into small, bite-sized pieces for even cooking.
Step 2
In a medium bowl, whisk together the olive oil, lime juice, garlic powder, ground cumin, paprika, chili powder, salt, and black pepper.
Step 3
Add the chicken pieces to the marinade, ensuring all pieces are well coated. Cover and marinate in the refrigerator for at least 15 minutes, or up to 2 hours for more flavor.
Step 4
While the chicken marinates, finely dice the red onion and chop the fresh cilantro. Slice the avocado and set aside.
Step 5
Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the marinated chicken pieces in a single layer. Sauté until cooked through and lightly browned, about 6-8 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Step 6
Meanwhile, warm the corn tortillas in another skillet over medium heat or directly on a gas flame for a few seconds on each side until pliable.
Step 7
Assemble the tacos by filling each tortilla with a portion of cooked chicken. Top with diced red onion, chopped cilantro, avocado slices, and a squeeze of lime juice.
Step 8
Add hot sauce if desired and enjoy immediately!
