Ingredients

• Chicken breast - 300 grams
• Pineapple (fresh or canned) - 150 grams, diced
• Lime juice - 2 tablespoons
• Garlic - 2 cloves, minced
• Cumin - 1 teaspoon
• Olive oil - 1 tablespoon
• Salt - to taste
• Black pepper - to taste
• Corn tortillas - 4 pieces
• Cilantro - 2 tablespoons, chopped
• Red onion - 50 grams, finely chopped

Steps

1. In a bowl, combine diced pineapple, lime juice, minced garlic, cumin, olive oil, salt, and black pepper to create the marinade.
2. Cut the chicken breast into bite-sized pieces and add them to the marinade. Let it sit for at least 15 minutes to absorb the flavors.
3. Heat a skillet over medium-high heat and add the marinated chicken. Cook for about 10-12 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through and slightly caramelized.
4. While the chicken is cooking, warm the corn tortillas in a separate skillet or microwave until soft.
5. To assemble the tacos, place the cooked chicken on each tortilla. Top with chopped cilantro, red onion, and slices of avocado.
6. Serve immediately with extra lime wedges on the side for added flavor.
