  • Olive oil - 1 tablespoon
  • Ground cumin - 1 teaspoon
  • Chili powder - 1 teaspoon
  • Garlic powder - 1/2 teaspoon
  • Salt - 1/2 teaspoon
  • Black pepper - 1/4 teaspoon
  • Corn tortillas - 4 small
  • Ripe mango - 1 medium, diced
  • Red onion - 1/4 cup, finely chopped
  • Fresh cilantro - 2 tablespoons, chopped
  • Lime juice - 1 tablespoon

Steps

  1. In a bowl, combine the olive oil, cumin, chili powder, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Add the chicken breast and coat it evenly with the marinade. Let it sit for 10 minutes.
  2. While the chicken is marinating, prepare the mango salsa by combining diced mango, red onion, cilantro, lime juice, and jalapeño in a bowl. Mix well and set aside.
  3. Heat a skillet over medium heat. Add the marinated chicken breast and cook for about 6-7 minutes on each side or until fully cooked and no longer pink inside. Remove from heat and let it rest for a few minutes.
  4. Slice the cooked chicken into thin strips.
  5. Warm the corn tortillas in the skillet for about 30 seconds on each side or until pliable.
  6. Assemble the tacos by placing sliced chicken on each tortilla and topping with the mango salsa. Serve immediately.
