Lime Chicken Tacos

Summertime 133
Adapted from Allrecipes

These turned out great!  After this picture was taken I drizzled my taco with more of the lime sauce, which I think is KEY because it is where all of the flavor comes from. 
Ingredients:
  • 1.5 lbs skinless, boneless chicken breast, cubed
  • ¼ cup red wine vinegar
  • 1 lime, juiced
  • 2 tsp white sugar
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1 tsp ground black pepper
  • 4 green onions, chiopped
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 tsp dried cumin
  • 8 flour tortillas
  • ½ cup fresh salsa
  • ½ cup Monterey Jack cheese
  • 1 avocado, peeled and sliced
Directions:
  • Sauté chicken in medium saucepan over medium-high heat for about 20 minutes.  Add vinegar, lime juice, sugar, salt, pepper, green onion, garlic and cumin.  Simmer for an extra 10 minutes
  • Warm the tortillas for 10-15 seconds each in the microwave.  Repeat with remaining tortillas.  Serve lime chicken mixture in warm tortillas topped with salsa, cheese and avocados.  Drizzle extra sauce over tacos.
