Instructions

1
In a mixing bowl, combine the chicken strips with 1 tbsp of the olive oil, cumin, chili powder, smoked paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, black pepper, and 2 tbsp lime juice. Toss until every strip is evenly coated, then let the chicken marinate at room temperature for 15 minutes.
2
While the chicken marinates, make the avocado crema. Combine the avocados, sour cream, 3 tbsp lime juice, cilantro leaves, jalapeño (if using), and salt in a blender or food processor. Blend until completely smooth and creamy. Taste and adjust salt, then transfer to a bowl and press a piece of plastic wrap directly onto the surface to prevent browning. Set aside.
