Preparation

Chicken Marinade Preparation

1. Marinate the Chicken

In a medium bowl, combine the sweet guava paste, lime juice, minced garlic, ground cumin, salt, and black pepper. Mix well to create the marinade.

2. Add Chicken

Add the chicken breasts to the marinade, ensuring they are fully coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, or up to 2 hours for more flavor.

Cooking the Chicken

3. Cook the Chicken

Preheat a grill or skillet over medium-high heat. Remove the chicken from the marinade and discard the remaining marinade. Grill or cook the chicken for about 6-7 minutes per side, or until fully cooked and juices run clear.

4. Rest and Slice

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

Taco Assembly

5. Warm the Tortillas

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

6. Assemble the Tacos

On each tortilla, layer the sliced chicken, shredded lettuce, diced tomatoes, sliced avocado, and a dollop of sour cream. Sprinkle with fresh cilantro on top.

7. Serve

Serve the tacos warm with lime wedges on the side for an extra zest.
