I'm really late posting this, and I'm sorry, because it's a recipe I've made at least a dozen times and shared on my Facebook page before I had a website. It just takes 45 minutes total to prep and cook, so it's another great recipe for a night you don't feel like doing much. I have no idea if these are authentic, but I do know they taste delicious. You can play around with the toppings, but I definitely recommend pico, cilantro and avocado.
Ingredients:
3 chicken breasts, cut in half lengthwise
3 garlic cloves, chopped
1 medium onion, roughly chopped
3-4 thyme sprigs
1 1/2 tsp smoked paprika
1 1/2 tsp cumin
1 tsp salt
1/2 tsp pepper
olive oil
For tacos (suggested):
1 package tortillas (I like the corn and wheat tortillas from Trader Joe's)
Pico de gallo
Shredded cabbage
Shredded pepper jack cheese or cheese of your choice
Avocado
Cilantro
Sour cream
Directions:
Preheat oven to 375 and line a sheet pan with parchment paper. Mix together paprika, cumin, salt and pepper in a small bowl. Place chicken on pan and lightly drizzle with olive oil. Sprinkle garlic and onion over chicken. Place thyme sprigs over chicken, then coat with the seasoning (it may look like a lot but use all of it!). Bake for 30-35 minutes or until chicken is fully cooked through. Shred chicken to your liking. Assemble tacos to your liking.
I would give credit for this recipe, but I can't remember where I found it! It's been that long.
