Method

Preparation of Chicken

  1. 1

    Marinate the Chicken

    In a mixing bowl, combine the olive oil, ground cumin, chili powder, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix well to create a marinade.

  2. 2

    Coat the Chicken

    Add the boneless, skinless chicken breasts to the marinade, ensuring they are well coated. Cover and let marinate for at least 30 minutes in the refrigerator.

Cooking the Chicken

  1. 3

    Cook the Chicken

    Preheat a grill or stovetop skillet over medium-high heat. Remove the chicken from the marinade and place it on the grill or skillet. Cook for about 6-7 minutes on each side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C).

  2. 4

    Rest and Slice the Chicken

    Once cooked, remove the chicken from heat and let it rest for 5 minutes. After resting, slice the chicken into thin strips.

Taco Assembly

    Prepare the Tortillas

    Warm the corn tortillas on the grill or in a skillet for about 30 seconds on each side until pliable.

  2. 6

    Assemble the Tacos

    Place sliced chicken on each tortilla. Top with shredded lettuce, diced tomatoes, shredded cheese, sour cream, and any optional toppings like sliced jalapeños or fresh cilantro.

  3. 7

    Serve

    Serve the tacos immediately while they are warm. Enjoy!
