Method
- Preheat a large non-stick skillet or grill pan over medium heat. Spray it heavily with cooking spray.
- Pound the chicken breasts to an even thickness or cut them in half lengthwise to form thinner cutlets. This helps them cook more evenly.
- Combine salt, ground cumin, chili powder, garlic powder, and onion powder in a small bowl. Season both sides of all chicken breasts generously with this spice mixture.
- When the skillet is hot, add 3 chicken breasts and cook for 5 to 6 minutes on each side, or until the chicken is completely cooked in the center. Cook the chicken in 2 batches to avoid overcrowding the pan.
- Once the chicken is cooked, transfer it to a large cutting board and cut it into bite-size strips.
- Meanwhile, heat the corn tortillas in the microwave for 10 to 20 seconds to warm them, or you can warm them up on a skillet.
- To assemble the tacos, add some chicken down the center of one corn tortilla. Add a couple of tablespoons each of chopped cilantro, raw onion, and purple cabbage. Sprinkle the top with a little Cotija cheese and Creamy Tomatillo dressing.
- Repeat this process with all the chicken, tortillas, and toppings. Serve immediately.
