Ingredients
- Chicken breast - 250 grams, diced
- Guava paste - 100 grams
- Fresh ginger - 1 tablespoon, grated
- Fresh cilantro - 1/4 cup, chopped
- Lime - 1, juiced

- Corn tortillas - 4 small
- Salt - 1/2 teaspoon
- Black pepper - 1/4 teaspoon
- Garlic - 1 clove, minced

Steps
- In a skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add chopped onion and minced garlic, sautéing until softened, about 3 minutes.
- Add the diced chicken breast to the skillet, seasoning with salt and black pepper. Cook for about 5-7 minutes, or until the chicken is browned and cooked through.
- In a small saucepan, combine guava paste, grated ginger, lime juice, and water. Heat over medium until the guava paste dissolves and the sauce thickens slightly, about 5 minutes.
