Begin by preheating your oven to 375°F (190°C).
In a small bowl, combine the paprika, ground cumin, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper.
Pat the chicken breasts dry with paper towels and rub them with olive oil.
Sprinkle the spice mixture evenly over the chicken breasts, ensuring both sides are well coated.
In a baking dish, place the seasoned chicken breasts and pour the chicken broth around them.
Cover the baking dish with foil and bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes or until the chicken is fully cooked (internal temperature should reach 165°F or 75°C).
Once cooked, remove the chicken from the oven and allow it to rest for 5 minutes.
Shred the chicken using two forks and mix it with the juices remaining in the baking dish to keep it moist and flavorful.
Heat the corn tortillas in a dry skillet over medium heat for about 30 seconds on each side or until they are warmed through.
To assemble the tacos, place a generous amount of shredded chicken onto each tortilla.
Top with chopped cilantro, diced red onion, sliced avocado, and a squeeze of lime.
Serve immediately and enjoy your soy-free shredded chicken tacos!
