1 lb boneless skinless chicken thighs

½ tbsp soy sauce

½ tbsp avocado oil

1 clove garlic (grated)

3 tbsp taco seasoning

Place chicken in an air fryer basket in a single layer. Cook at 400 degrees Fahrenheit until golden brown and crusty on the outside and juicy inside. Alternatively, pan-sear in a hot skillet with oil for 5-6 minutes per side.

Cook chicken

While the chicken cooks, blend avocado, mayo, cotija cheese, cilantro, garlic, and lime juice in a food processor or blender until smooth. Add water as needed to reach a drizzling consistency.

½ whole avocado

½ cup mayo

3 oz cotija cheese

½ cup cilantro (stems and leaves)

1 clove garlic

2 tbsp lime juice

2 tbsp water (as needed)

Let the chicken rest briefly, then chop into bite-sized pieces. Squeeze lime juice over the chopped chicken. Load warm tortillas with the chicken, drizzle with green sauce, and top with cilantro and diced onion.

8 whole tortillas (warmed)

1 whole lime (for squeezing)

¼ cup white onion (diced)
