Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into bite-sized pieces
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1/2 teaspoon chili powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon cumin
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. In a bowl, toss the chicken pieces with olive oil, chili powder, cumin, salt, and pepper.
