1
Prepare the Chicken
In a bowl, marinate the chicken breast with olive oil, salt, and black pepper. Let it sit for at least 15 minutes.
2
Grill the Chicken
Preheat a grill or grill pan over medium-high heat. Cook the marinated chicken for about 6-7 minutes on each side or until fully cooked. Remove from heat and let it rest for a few minutes before slicing.
3
Sauté the Onions
In a skillet, add a little olive oil and sauté the chopped onion until they are translucent and slightly caramelized.
4
Assemble the Tacos
Warm the soft taco tortillas on the grill or in a pan. On each tortilla, layer slices of grilled chicken, sautéed onions, and sprinkle fresh cilantro on top. Squeeze lime juice over the tacos.
5
Serve
Serve the tacos warm with additional lime wedges if desired.
