Serves: 8 tacos
Ingredients
  • 3 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 lb. chicken breasts (4 small or two large cut in half)
  • ¾ teaspoon Tajin seasoning
  • ¾ teaspoon salt
  • ¼ teaspoon chili powder
  • ⅛ teaspoon garlic powder
  • ⅛ teaspoon onion powder
  • ⅛ teaspoon ground mustard
  • 1 small onion, cut into ¼" thick strips
  • 1 red, orange, or yellow bell pepper, seeded and cut into ¼" thick strips
  • 1 ear of corn, shucked and kernals cut off
  • 1½ teaspoons lime juice (about ½ a lime)
  • 8 corn tortillas
  • toppings such as: avocado slices, salsa, pico de gallo, shredded cheese, sour cream, lime wedges, lettuce, etc.
Directions
  1. In a small bowl, combine Tajin seasoning, salt, chili powder, garlic powder, onion powder, and ground mustard. Mix to combine and set aside.
  2. Prepare chicken by trimming fat and cutting chicken breasts in half if they are larger. Each breast should be about 4 oz. for optimal stove top cooking. Set aside.
  3. Prepare veggies by slicing onion and bell peppers and cutting corn, keeping corn separate. Set aside.
  4. In a large skillet or cast iron pot, heat olive oil over medium heat. While oil is heating, generously season both sides of the chicken with about ⅔ of the seasoning mix. Toss onion and bell pepper in remaining seasoning.
  5. Once pan is hot enough that a drop of water sizzles, place chicken breasts in pan. Reduce heat just below medium. Add onion and bell pepper to pot surrounding the chicken breasts. Cook chicken for 8 minutes on one side, turn over, and cook for an additional 4-5 minutes or until cooked through.
  6. Remove chicken from pan and transfer to a plate. Cover with foil to keep warm.
  7. Add lime juice and corn to the pan and cook veggies until all liquid has reduced. Remove from heat and keep warm in pan. Slice the chicken against the grain into strips and arrange on a plate. Add warm veggies to the plate for serving.
  8. While chicken was cooking, prepare toppings for tacos. Warm tortillas on a skillet just before serving.
  9. Serve tacos with desired toppings and extra lime wedges.
