  2. 2. In a bowl, mix together the chipotle paste or adobo sauce, lime juice, ground cumin, garlic powder, salt, pepper, and olive oil.

  6. 6. Place the coated chicken breasts in the hot oil and cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side until golden brown and crispy. Remove from the pan and transfer to a baking sheet.


  7. 7. Finish cooking the chicken in the preheated oven for about 15-20 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through and reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C). Remove from the oven and let it rest for a few minutes before slicing.

  9. 9. Slice the cooked chicken into thin strips.
