This recipe is quick and easy - good for those nights you don't have a lot of time to prepare dinner. Chicken breast is simmered in a lemon-lime marinade, then served with taco fixings so that everyone can make their own soft taco. 
Makes: 8 servings 


Ingredients
1 pound skinless, boneless chicken breast halves, cut into bite size pieces
1 cup lemonade
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 tablespoon lime juice
1 1/2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon onion powder
1 teaspoon Smokey sweet paprika
1/2 teaspoon chili powder
very little salt and as much pepper as you like
1 (12 ounce) package tortillas(we used flour, it's what we had)
2 cups Cilantro lime slaw(recipe below)
1 (8 ounce) package shredded Mexican cheese
1 (8 ounce) Pico de Gaia
1 (8 ounce) container sour cream


How to make it:
In a large skillet over medium heat, combine chicken, lemonade, olive oil, lime juice, and Worcestershire sauce. Season with garlic powder, onion powder, paprika and chili powder. Simmer until chicken is no longer pink, and juices run clear, 15 to 20 minutes.
Meanwhile, warm the tortillas in the oven or skillet till warm. When chicken is fully cooked, transfer to serving bowl. Place toppings in serving dishes. Each person can create their own taco, using their preferred ingredients.
