White Scribbled Underline

In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the sliced or diced chicken to the skillet and season with chili powder, ground cumin, garlic powder, salt, and pepper.

Cook the chicken for 6-8 minutes, stirring occasionally, until it is cooked through and no longer pink. Remove the skillet from heat and set aside.

While the chicken is cooking, warm the tortillas. You can warm them in a dry skillet over medium heat for about 30 seconds on each side, or wrap them in a damp paper towel and microwave them for 20-30 seconds.

To assemble the tacos, place a spoonful of the cooked chicken onto each tortilla. Top the chicken with shredded lettuce or cabbage, diced tomatoes, diced onion, chopped cilantro, and sliced avocado.

Squeeze a lime wedge over each taco for added flavor.

Serve the chicken tacos hot, with optional toppings such as shredded cheese, sour cream or Greek yogurt, salsa or pico de gallo, sliced jalapeños, and hot sauce on the side.
