Instructions

In a mixing bowl, combine olive oil, lime juice, smoked paprika, chili powder, salt, and pepper. Add chicken and coat evenly.
Heat a skillet over medium-high heat and cook the marinated chicken for about 5–7 minutes on each side until golden brown. Remove from heat and let rest before slicing.
In another bowl, mix diced peaches, sweet red bell pepper, red onion, green onions, chili powder, salt, and pepper to make the peach salsa.
For cilantro-lime crema, whisk together Greek yogurt, mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, Sriracha, lime juice, and chopped cilantro until smooth.
Warm tortillas in a skillet for about 30 seconds per side. Assemble tacos by filling tortillas with sliced chicken topped with peach salsa and drizzle with crema.
