Ingredients
Scale
2 cups cooked chicken, shredded
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 teaspoon chili powder
1 teaspoon cumin
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon onion powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
8 small corn tortillas
1 cup diced tomatoes
1 cup shredded lettuce
1/2 cup diced red onion
1/2 cup chopped fresh cilantro
1 lime, cut into wedges
Sour cream or avocado (optional, for serving)
Instructions
In a skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the shredded chicken, chili powder, cumin, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper. Stir to combine and cook for about 5 minutes, until heated through.
While the chicken is cooking, warm the corn tortillas in a separate skillet over medium heat for about 30 seconds on each side, or until pliable.
To assemble the tacos, place a generous amount of the seasoned chicken on each tortilla.
Top the chicken with diced tomatoes, shredded lettuce, diced red onion, and chopped cilantro.
Squeeze fresh lime juice over the tacos and add sour cream or avocado if desired.
Serve immediately and enjoy!
Notes
For extra flavor, marinate the chicken in the spices for 30 minutes before cooking.
Swap out the chicken for grilled shrimp or sautéed vegetables for a vegetarian option.
