The swap
Homemade seasoning instead of a packet, since many packets use wheat flour as a filler. Corn tortillas instead of flour.
Ingredients 1 1/2 pounds boneless chicken thighs 1 tablespoon oil Homemade taco seasoning: 2 teaspoons chili powder, 1 teaspoon cumin, 1 teaspoon smoked paprika, 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder, 1/2 teaspoon onion powder, 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano, 1 teaspoon salt Juice of 1 lime 12 corn tortillas GF label Toppings: shredded cabbage, salsa, avocado, cilantro, sour cream, lime wedges Every packaged ingredient marked GF label often hides gluten. Buy one labeled gluten-free.
Steps Toss the chicken with the oil and all the seasoning. Cook in a skillet over medium-high 5 to 6 minutes per side, until cooked through. Rest 5 minutes, then chop and toss with the lime juice. Warm the tortillas in a dry skillet 30 seconds per side, or wrap in a damp towel and microwave 45 seconds. Warm tortillas won't crack. Fill and top as you like.
