Season the Chicken:
In a small bowl, mix chili powder, cumin, garlic powder, smoked paprika, onion powder, salt, and black pepper.
Rub the seasoning mix all over the Sadia Chicken Drumsticks and Thighs, ensuring they’re evenly coated.
Cook the Chicken:
Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
Place the seasoned chicken in the skillet and cook for about 6–8 minutes per side until golden brown and fully cooked (internal temperature should reach 75°C/165°F).
For extra moisture, add chicken broth or water to the skillet during cooking.
Shred the Chicken:
Remove the cooked chicken from the skillet and let it rest for 5 minutes.
Shred the meat using two forks or chop into bite-sized pieces.
Warm the Tortillas:
Warm tortillas in a dry skillet for 20–30 seconds per side or wrap them in a damp paper towel and microwave for 30 seconds.
Assemble the Tacos:
Layer shredded chicken onto each warm tortilla.
Add your choice of toppings such as lettuce, tomatoes, cheese, sour cream, guacamole, or salsa.
Serve:
Serve the tacos immediately with lime wedges for an extra burst of flavor.
