Ingredients
1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into thin strips
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 teaspoon chili powder
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon onion powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
8 small corn tortillas
1 cup shredded lettuce
1 medium tomato, diced
1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese
1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro
1/4 cup sour cream
1 lime, cut into wedges
Instructions
In a medium bowl, combine chili powder, ground cumin, smoked paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper.
Add the chicken strips to the bowl and toss with the spice mixture until evenly coated.
Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
Add the seasoned chicken strips to the skillet and cook for 5 to 7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the chicken is cooked through and no longer pink inside.
While the chicken cooks, warm the corn tortillas in a dry skillet over medium heat for about 30 seconds on each side until pliable.
To assemble the tacos, place a few strips of cooked chicken on each tortilla.
Top with shredded lettuce, diced tomato, shredded cheddar cheese, and chopped cilantro.
Add a dollop of sour cream on top of each taco.
Serve with lime wedges on the side for squeezing over the tacos.
