Method

Prepare the Chicken

  1. 1

    Marinate the Chicken

    In a bowl, mix together olive oil, ground cumin, chili powder, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Add the chicken breasts and coat them well. Let it marinate for at least 30 minutes.

  2. 2

    Grill the Chicken

    Preheat the grill to medium-high heat. Grill the marinated chicken for about 6-7 minutes on each side or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C). Remove from the grill and let it rest for a few minutes before slicing.

Make the Salsa

  1. 3

    Prepare Ingredients

    Dice the Roma tomatoes, red onion, and jalapeño pepper (remove seeds for less heat). Chop the fresh cilantro.

  2. 4

    Mix the Salsa

    In a bowl, combine the diced tomatoes, onion, jalapeño, cilantro, lime juice, and salt. Mix well and set aside to let the flavors meld.

Assemble the Tacos

  1. 5

    Warm the Tortillas

    In a dry skillet over medium heat, warm the corn tortillas for about 30 seconds on each side until they are pliable.

  2. 6

    Build the Tacos

    On each tortilla, layer sliced grilled chicken, lettuce, avocado slices, salsa, a dollop of sour cream, and a sprinkle of shredded cheese.

  3. 7

    Serve

    Serve the chicken tacos immediately, garnished with extra cilantro if desired.
