Ingredients (serves 4):

- 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 4 tilapia fillets
- 8 small flour tortillas
- 1 tablespoon olive oil

- 1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro
- 1/4 cup diced red onion

Cooking Tips:

- Make sure to pat the chicken and fish dry with paper towels before seasoning them. This will help the seasoning stick better and create a nice crust when cooking.
- Use a cast-iron skillet or grill pan to cook the chicken and fish. This will help create a nice char and give the tacos that signature blackened look.
- Don't overcook the chicken and fish. They should be cooked through but still moist and tender.

Instructions:

1. In a small bowl, mix together the paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, oregano, thyme, cayenne pepper, salt, and pepper.
2. Rub the seasoning mixture all over the chicken and fish, making sure to coat them evenly.
3. Heat the olive oil in a cast-iron skillet or grill pan over medium-high heat.
4. Add the chicken and fish to the pan and cook for 4-5 minutes per side, or until cooked through.
5. Remove the chicken and fish from the pan and let them rest for a few minutes.
6. While the chicken and fish are resting, warm the tortillas in the oven or on the stovetop.
7. To assemble the tacos, place a piece of chicken or fish on each tortilla and top with avocado, cilantro, red onion, queso fresco, and a squeeze of lime.
8. Serve immediately and enjoy!
