Ingredients

1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into bite-sized pieces
1/2 cup orange juice
1/4 cup honey
2 tablespoons soy sauce
1 tablespoon rice vinegar
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon ground ginger
Salt and pepper to taste
8 small corn or flour tortillas
1 cup shredded lettuce
1/2 cup diced tomatoes
1/4 cup chopped cilantro
1 avocado, sliced
Lime wedges for serving

Instructions

Prepare the Chicken: In a bowl, combine orange juice, honey, soy sauce, rice vinegar, garlic powder, ground ginger, salt, and pepper. Add the chicken pieces and marinate for at least 15 minutes.
Cook the Chicken: Heat a skillet over medium-high heat. Add the marinated chicken and cook for about 8-10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the chicken is cooked through and the glaze thickens.
Warm the Tortillas: While the chicken cooks, warm the tortillas in a separate skillet or microwave until pliable.
Assemble the Tacos: Place a portion of the glazed chicken on each tortilla. Top with shredded lettuce, diced tomatoes, chopped cilantro, and avocado slices.
Serve: Squeeze fresh lime juice over the tacos and serve immediately with lime wedges on the side.
