This low-carb take on a Mexican street-food taco uses lettuce leaves instead of traditional flour tortillas. It is easy to scale up for a large grill gathering.

Step by Step

How to make it?

1

Marinate

20 min

Rub the chicken breast with the cumin, sweet paprika, lemon juice, olive oil, and salt. Marinate for 20 minutes.

2

Grill

16 min

Grill the chicken for 8 minutes per side.

3

Slice

10 min

Let the cooked chicken rest, then cut it into thin strips.

4

Make the Topping

10 min

Chop the tomato, avocado, red onion, and fresh cilantro, then mix together.

5

Fill and Serve

14 min

Divide the chicken and topping among the lettuce leaves and serve.

Reminder

Marinate the chicken for 20 minutes before grilling, or the meat may turn out dry and bland.
