Ingredients
  

For the Chicken:

4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts

2 tablespoons olive oil

2 teaspoons smoked paprika

1 teaspoon garlic powder

1 teaspoon ground cumin

1 teaspoon salt

½ teaspoon black pepper

Juice of 1 lime

For the Peach Salsa:

2 ripe peaches, diced (approximately 1 cup)

1 small red onion, finely chopped

1 jalapeño, seeded and minced (adjust for desired spice level)

½ cup fresh cilantro, chopped

Juice of 1 lime

Salt to taste

For Serving:

8 small corn or flour tortillas

1 cup crumbled feta cheese (optional)

Fresh lime wedges (optional)

Instructions
 

Marinate the Chicken:

    In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the olive oil, smoked paprika, garlic powder, ground cumin, salt, black pepper, and the juice of 1 lime until well combined. Add the chicken breasts to the bowl, ensuring each breast is evenly coated in the marinade. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, or up to 2 hours for optimal flavor infusion.

      Prepare the Peach Salsa:

        In a separate mixing bowl, combine the diced peaches, finely chopped red onion, minced jalapeño, chopped cilantro, and the juice of 1 lime. Season the mixture with salt to taste, stirring gently to combine. Allow the salsa to rest for at least 10 minutes; this helps the flavors meld beautifully.

          Grill the Chicken:

            Preheat your grill to a medium-high heat. Take the marinated chicken out of the fridge and let any excess marinade drip off. Grill the chicken for about 6-7 minutes on each side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C). Once done, remove the chicken from the grill and let it rest for a few minutes before slicing into thin strips.

              Warm the Tortillas:

                While the chicken is resting, warm the tortillas on the grill for approximately 30 seconds on each side until they are pliable and slightly charred. Alternatively, you can heat them in a dry skillet over medium heat until warmed through.

                  Assemble the Tacos:

                    On each warmed tortilla, place a generous portion of sliced grilled chicken. Top with a spoonful of fresh peach salsa and sprinkle with crumbled feta cheese if desired. Serve with fresh lime wedges on the side for an added zing.

                      Enjoy!
