AIP Taco Seasoning
This AIP Taco Seasoning combines oregano, onion powder, garlic powder, ground ginger, turmeric, cinnamon, salt, and cilantro to create a flavorful blend free of nightshades. It's mixed into sliced or cubed chicken breast and pan-seared in olive oil until cooked through, then served in tortillas alongside pico de gallo and optional avocado. The seasoning adds a warm, aromatic profile compatible with an autoimmune protocol diet.

- Measure oregano, onion powder, salt, garlic powder, ginger powder, dried cilantro, turmeric and cinnamon powder into an airtight jar. Close the lid and give it a good shake to mix them. Store in a cool and dry place.
AIP Chicken Tacos
- Add the chicken pieces to a bowl, stir in a tablespoon of the previously made homemade taco seasoning and combine.
- Next, heat oil in a pan over medium heat. Add chicken to the pan in a single layer, and allow to brown for about 5 minutes on each side or until the chicken attains an internal temperature of 165 degrees F. You can add more salt at this point, if you feel the chicken needs more seasoning.
- Serve onto tortillas, tacos, with avocado or simply make a salad and top with pico de gallo!
Notes
- Prepare the taco seasoning blend ahead of time to develop the flavors fully.
- Use about one teaspoon of the seasoning mix for every half pound of chicken or vegetables cooked.
- Adjust the amount of seasoning based on your desired spice intensity.
