Special Chili, Garlic And Lime Healthy Chicken Tacos

In a rush tonight, I made this special ground chicken dinner: chili, garlic and lime healthy chicken tacos, with avocado salsa. You could also try making these with fish or black beans (if you’re vegetarian/vegan). I’d highly recommend using coriander (cilantro) to make this meal even more delicious.

Other additions to the Chili, Garlic And Lime Healthy Chicken Tacos could include lettuce, spinach, sliced radishes, cheddar cheese, Greek yogurt, corn or shredded carrot. Feel free to comment below on any other amazing taco recipes you’ve tried!
