Ingredients

• Chicken breast - 300 grams
• Chipotle peppers in adobo sauce - 2 tablespoons
• Olive oil - 1 tablespoon
• Garlic - 2 cloves, minced
• Cumin - 1 teaspoon
• Paprika - 1 teaspoon
• Salt - 1/2 teaspoon
• Black pepper - 1/4 teaspoon
• Lime juice - 1 tablespoon
• Low-carb tortillas - 4 pieces
• Avocado - 1 medium, sliced
• Fresh cilantro - 2 tablespoons, chopped
• Radishes - 4, thinly sliced

Steps

1. In a bowl, combine the chicken breast, chipotle peppers, olive oil, minced garlic, cumin, paprika, salt, black pepper, and lime juice. Mix well to coat the chicken evenly.
2. Marinate the chicken for at least 15 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
3. Heat a skillet over medium heat and add the marinated chicken. Cook for about 6-7 minutes on each side, or until the chicken is fully cooked and has a nice char.
4. Remove the chicken from the skillet and let it rest for a few minutes before slicing it into strips.
5. Warm the low-carb tortillas in a dry skillet for about 30 seconds on each side until pliable.
6. Assemble the tacos by placing sliced chicken on each tortilla, then top with avocado, fresh cilantro, and sliced radishes.
7. Serve immediately with extra lime wedges on the side.
