Ingredients
  

1 lb ground chicken

2 tsp smoked paprika

1 tsp cumin

1 tsp garlic powder

1/2 tsp onion powder

1/2 tsp red pepper flakes (adjust to taste)

1 tsp salt

1/2 tsp black pepper

1 tbsp olive oil

8 small corn tortillas

1 cup shredded cabbage

1 ripe avocado, sliced

1/4 cup fresh cilantro, chopped

1 lime, cut into wedges

Salsa or hot sauce for serving

Instructions
 

In a large bowl, combine the ground chicken, smoked paprika, cumin, garlic powder, onion powder, red pepper flakes, salt, and black pepper. Mix well until all the spices are evenly distributed.

    Preheat a large skillet over medium heat and add the olive oil. Once hot, add the seasoned chicken mixture.

      Cook the chicken, breaking it apart with a spatula, until it is cooked through and lightly browned, about 8-10 minutes. Stir regularly to ensure even cooking.

        While the chicken is cooking, warm the corn tortillas in a separate pan or directly over the flame until pliable.

          To assemble the tacos, place a generous amount of the spicy chicken mixture on each tortilla. Top with shredded cabbage, avocado slices, and fresh cilantro.

            Serve immediately with lime wedges on the side and your choice of salsa or hot sauce.
