Ingredients & Directions

Directions

Chicken

1 1/2 lbs
1 tablespoon
chili powder
1/2 tablespoons
Lime juice
2 tablespoon
olive oil
3/4 teaspoon
Garlic powder
1 teaspoon
Ground cumin
1 tbsp
sea salt
Tortillas
  1. Combine all dry seasonings for chicken with 1 tablespoon of oil to create a paste; rub onto chicken and let marinate for 30 minutes.
  2. While chicken is marinating, in large skillet, heat butter on medium.
  3. Add corn and sugar, & cook for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  4. Combine corn into a small bowl with green onion, cilantro, lime juice, jalapeños and stir well, add sea salt to taste, & set aside.
  5. In same pan, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium-high heat.
  6. Once hot, add chicken smooth side down and cook for 6 minutes each side until internal temperature reads 165°F. (Cook time will vary depending on the size of your chicken. Thighs take about 22 minutes.)
  7. Combine all mayo ingredients into a bowl and mix well.
  8. Tortillas may be heated in a pan or in a moist paper towel using the microwave.
  9. Dice chicken, assemble taco using mayo first, sweet corn, chicken, and a little sweeter corn on top. (Cheese is optional but left off here to adhere to a cleaner style of eating.)

NOTES

Additional ideas: add bacon for a savory flavored taco.

Ditch the tortillas and use lettuce wraps to adhere to a low carb diet.

Swap out avocado mayo for a Greek yogurt to take this 1 step healthier.
