steps
- 1.
In a bowl, combine the chicken strips, minced garlic, chili powder, cumin, paprika, cayenne pepper (if desired), salt, and pepper. Toss to coat the chicken evenly with the spices.

In the same skillet, add the PVT and sauté until heated through, about 3-4 minutes. Remove from heat.
- 4.
Warm the tortillas on a dry skillet or in the microwave for a few seconds on each side.

Assemble the tacos by placing a spoonful of PVT on each tortilla, followed by a few chicken strips. Top with shredded lettuce, diced tomatoes, red onion, cilantro, and avocado slices.
