Instructions

Whisk together the honey, lime juice, chili powder and garlic powder and make it into a sauce.
Place the shredded chicken in a Ziploc bag and pour the sauce in with the chicken and shake until it is all covered.
Stick the bag with the chicken in the fridge for 15 to 30 minutes to let the sauce soak in.
While it is soaking, chop up the lettuce, tomatoes, green onions and any other toppings you want on your taco.
Remove chicken from ziploc bag and place in a medium sized bowl. Heat in microwave for about 1 minute or until heated through.
Portion evenly into 8 taco shells. Top each with preferred toppings and serve.

Notes

The longer you marinate the chicken the better the flavor. You can even put it in there the night before!
