-
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
-
1 tablespoon lime juice
-
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder or 1 clove garlic, minced

Place the chicken between 2 pieces of plastic wrap. Pound the chicken to 1/2-inch thickness, using a meat mallet or a rolling pin. Season the chicken as desired. Cut lengthwise into 1-inch strips.

Stir the picante sauce, oil, lime juice, garlic powder, and cumin in a small bowl. Add the chicken and toss to coat.
