Ingredients
- 2 medium chicken breasts
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 2 tablespoons chipotle in adobo sauce
- 1 teaspoon ground cumin
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 8 small corn tortillas
- 1 cup fresh pineapple, diced
- 1/4 cup red onion, finely chopped
- 1/4 cup cilantro, chopped
- Juice of 1 lime
- 1 avocado, sliced
- 1/2 cup crumbled queso fresco (optional)
Instructions
- 1Preheat the grill to medium-high heat.
- 2In a bowl, mix the olive oil, chipotle in adobo sauce, ground cumin, garlic powder, and season with salt and pepper to create a marinade.
- 3Coat the chicken breasts with the marinade, ensuring they are well covered. Allow them to marinate for at least 30 minutes to absorb the flavors.
- 4While the chicken is marinating, prepare the pineapple salsa by mixing the diced pineapple, red onion, cilantro, and lime juice in a bowl. Season with salt to taste and set aside.
- 5Grill the marinated chicken for about 6-7 minutes on each side or until cooked through (internal temperature should reach 165°F). Remove from the grill and let it rest for a few minutes before slicing.
- 6While the chicken rests, warm the corn tortillas on the grill for about 30 seconds on each side until soft and pliable.
- 7Assemble the tacos by placing sliced chicken on each tortilla, topping with pineapple salsa, avocado slices, and crumbled queso fresco if desired. Serve immediately.
