1
Prepare the Chicken
In a bowl, mix the olive oil, garlic powder, cumin, salt, and black pepper. Add the chicken breast and coat it well with the spice mixture. Let it marinate for at least 15 minutes.
2
Grill the Chicken
Preheat a grill or a grill pan over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the marinated chicken breast. Grill for about 6-7 minutes on each side or until fully cooked and internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C).
3
Slice the Chicken
Once cooked, remove the chicken from the grill and let it rest for 5 minutes. Then, slice the chicken into thin strips.

4
Prepare the Tortillas
Warm the corn tortillas on the grill or in a skillet for about 30 seconds on each side until pliable.
5
Assemble the Tacos
Place an equal amount of grilled chicken strips on each tortilla. Top with chopped fresh cilantro and diced onion.
6
Serve
Fold the tortillas in half and serve immediately with your favorite salsa or hot sauce on the side.
