- 1/2 tsp Smoked paprika
- 8 Small flour tortillas
Instructions
- Step 1: In a bowl, combine the chicken pieces with olive oil and smoked paprika. Toss well to coat evenly.
- Step 2: Melt butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add minced garlic and cook for about 1 minute, until fragrant, being careful not to burn it.
- Step 3: Add the chicken to the skillet and cook until browned and cooked through, about 6-8 minutes.

- Step 5: Warm the tortillas according to package directions.
- Step 6: Fill each tortilla with the garlic butter honey BBQ chicken. Serve immediately.
Notes
- Store leftover chicken filling in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
- For best results, reheat the chicken filling in a skillet over medium heat with a splash of water or broth to prevent drying.
- Garnish your tacos with a sprinkle of cilantro and a drizzle of lime juice for extra freshness.
- Don't overcrowd the skillet when cooking the chicken; cook in batches if necessary to ensure even browning and prevent steaming.
