Ingredients

🍗 6 boneless skinless chicken thighs
🧂 1 tablespoon Lawry's seasoned salt
🌶️ 2 teaspoons paprika
🌿 1 teaspoon cumin
🧄 1 teaspoon garlic powder
🌰 1 teaspoon onion powder
🌶️ 1 teaspoon chili powder
🔥 1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper
🧂 1/2 teaspoon salt
🌿 1 teaspoon oregano
🍋 Juice of 2 limes
🫒 3 tablespoons olive oil
🌮 Flour tortillas
🥑 Guacamole
🌿 Cilantro (for topping)

Instructions

1- Prepare the Chicken:

Dice the chicken thighs into small, bite-sized pieces.
In a mixing bowl, season the chicken with Lawry's seasoned salt, paprika, cumin, garlic powder, onion powder, chili powder, cayenne pepper, salt, oregano, and lime juice.
Mix well to ensure the chicken is fully coated in the marinade.
Let it marinate in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours, or overnight for maximum flavor.

2- Cook the Chicken:

Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
Once the oil is hot, add the marinated chicken to the skillet.
Cook the chicken, stirring occasionally, until it is fully cooked and no longer pink in the center, about 8-10 minutes.

3- Toast the Tortillas:

In a separate pan, lightly toast the flour tortillas on each side until they are warm and slightly crispy.

4- Assemble the Tacos:

Start by spreading a generous layer of guacamole on each tortilla.
Add a serving of the cooked chicken, followed by a sprinkle of onions and cilantro.
For an extra burst of flavor, squeeze a little more lime juice on top just before serving.
