You will need:
2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
1/2 cup Yellowbird Serrano Sauce
1/2 cup fresh lime juice
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 teaspoon cumin
Salt and pepper to taste
8 small corn tortillas
1 cup shredded lettuce
1/2 cup diced tomatoes

Instructions
- Start by marinating the chicken. In a bowl, combine the Yellowbird Serrano Sauce, lime juice, minced garlic, cumin, salt, and pepper. Mix well.
- Add the chicken breasts to the marinade, ensuring they are fully coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or overnight for best results.
- After marinating, preheat your grill or skillet over medium heat.
- Cook the chicken on the preheated grill or skillet for 6-7 minutes on each side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F.
- Once cooked, remove the chicken from the grill or skillet and let it rest for a few minutes. Then, slice the chicken into thin strips.
- Warm the corn tortillas in a dry skillet over medium heat until they are pliable.
- Assemble the tacos by placing a layer of shredded lettuce on each tortilla, followed by the sliced chicken, diced tomatoes, chopped cilantro, and crumbled queso fresco.
- Serve immediately with extra Yellowbird Serrano Sauce on the side for those who want an extra kick.
