Cilantro Lime Chicken

Is it just me or does chicken taste better in strips? I think it’s just me but honestly, I could eat these like jerky. They are perfect for tacos, salads, harvest bowls, or simply by themselves. Super easy and packed with citrus flavors, this one is a no-brainer.

Here, you’ll see I used the Cilantro Lime Chicken as the main to a light, green-y taco spread. Although not the main recipe here, my combination was the chicken, shredded romaine, roasted poblano peppers, jalapeno, avocado, and of course – extra lime! And if you haven’t tried Siete Food Tortillas… run, don’t walk. I am obsessed with their Cassava tortillas. And their Chickpea tortillas. And their chips, and their dip, and their taco seasoning, and their burrito size dillas… basically everything.
