Directions:

Marinate the chicken: Mix lime juice, chile powder, garlic, salt, oregano, and pepper; whisk in oil.

Grill chicken (if searing in skillet, use 1 Tablespoon oil), flipping after about 4 minutes, until it's just firm to the touch and cooked, through, about 9 minutes total.
Let cool, then chop into fine pieces.
Heat skillet over medium heat, adding 1 Tablespoon of oil and the bacon.
Cook, stirring frequently, until bacon just begins to brown.
Turn to medium-high, add chiles and onions.
Cook, stirring frequently, until they begin to soften.
Add chopped chicken, cilantro, and lime juice, stirring constantly until chicken is hot.
Taste, and adjust seasoning with salt.
Sprinkle grated cheese over the top, remove pan from heat, and allow cheese to melt.
Serve with soft tacos, salsa, etc.
