Instructions
- Prepare the Chicken: In a large bowl, combine olive oil, lime juice, chili powder, cumin, paprika, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Add the sliced chicken and toss to coat.
- Cook the Chicken: Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken and cook for 5–6 minutes until cooked through and lightly browned. Remove from skillet and set aside.
