1
Marinate the Chicken
In a bowl, combine the chicken breasts with taco seasoning. Ensure the chicken is evenly coated. Let it marinate for at least 30 minutes.
2
Grill the Chicken
Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. Grill the marinated chicken breasts for about 6-7 minutes on each side, or until fully cooked (internal temperature should reach 165°F/75°C). Once cooked, remove from the grill and let rest for a few minutes before slicing.

3
Chop the Ingredients
Dice the tomatoes and red onion. Finely chop the cilantro.
4
Mix the Salsa
In a bowl, combine the chopped tomatoes, red onion, cilantro, and lime juice. Season with salt to taste. Mix well and let it sit for at least 10 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.

5
Prepare the Tortillas
Warm the tortillas on the grill for about 30 seconds on each side or until pliable.
6
Assemble the Tacos
Slice the grilled chicken into strips. On each tortilla, layer the sliced chicken, diced avocado, and a generous spoonful of the salsa. Fold the tortillas in half to form tacos.
