Ingredients
500g chicken breast, diced
1 tbsp olive oil
Homemade seasoning
1 tsp ground cumin
1 tsp paprika
½ tsp garlic powder
½ tsp onion powder
½ tsp dried oregano
½ tsp chilli powder (adjust to taste)
¼ tsp chilli flakes (optional)
½ tsp salt
¼ tsp black pepper
To serve
8 small tortillas
Guacamole
Fresh salsa or pico de gallo
Grated cheese
Sour cream
Fresh coriander
Lime wedges
Method
In a small bowl, mix together the cumin, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, oregano, chilli powder, chilli flakes (if using), salt and black pepper.
Heat the olive oil in a large frying pan over a medium heat. Add the diced chicken and cook until golden and cooked through.
Turn the heat to low and sprinkle the seasoning over the chicken and stir to coat evenly. Add a splash of water if needed and cook for another minute, until the chicken is completely coated in the spice.
Warm the tortillas in a dry frying pan or microwave. Divide the chicken between them and top with guacamole, salsa, grated cheese, sour cream and fresh coriander. Finish with a squeeze of lime and serve.
