Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 chicken breasts, boneless and skinless
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon chili powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon cumin
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 2 ripe avocados, sliced

  3. Warm the tortillas in a skillet or microwave.
  4. Slice the avocados and drizzle with lime juice to prevent browning.
