Step-by-Step Instructions for Chicken Al Pastor Tacos
- In a small bowl, combine chili powder, ground cumin, paprika, garlic powder, oregano, cinnamon, salt, and pepper. Whisk together until well blended.

- Preheat your grill to medium-high heat (about 400°F).
- Place the marinated chicken on the hot grill and cook for 6-7 minutes per side. Ensure internal temperature reaches 165°F.

- Remove grilled chicken and let rest for 5 minutes.
- Warm tortillas on the grill for about 1 minute on each side.
- Assemble your tacos by slicing the chicken and placing it onto the warmed tortillas. Top with caramelized pineapple, diced red onion, and cilantro.
