Preparation Steps

  1. 1

    Cook the Chicken

    In a skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Season the chicken breast with salt, black pepper, cumin, and chili powder. Cook the chicken for about 6-7 minutes per side or until fully cooked. Remove from heat and let it rest for a few minutes before slicing.

    Prepare the Toppings

    While the chicken is resting, slice the red onion and radishes thinly. Chop the cilantro and set aside.

  3. 3

    Assemble the Tacos

    Warm the corn tortillas on a grill or skillet until pliable. Layer shredded cabbage, sliced chicken, red onion, radishes, and cilantro on each tortilla.

  4. 4

    Add Sauce

    Drizzle the white sauce over the assembled tacos.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Serve the tacos immediately with extra lime wedges if desired.
