Tender, spiced chicken cooked to perfection and served in warm corn tortillas. Topped with a zesty avocado crema, fresh avocado slices, crisp cabbage, and a squeeze of lime for a burst of flavor.
Ingredients:
- 500 grams chicken thighs
- 2 teaspoons chipotle powder
- 1 teaspoon cumin
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 4 pieces corn tortillas
- 1 pieces avocado
- 100 grams sour cream
- 1 pieces lime
- 100 grams cabbage
Instructions:
- In a bowl, mix together chipotle powder, cumin, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper.
- Add olive oil and chicken thighs to the bowl, coating the chicken well with the spice mixture.
- Heat a skillet over medium-high heat and cook the chicken for about 5-7 minutes on each side, or until fully cooked through and juices run clear.
- While the chicken is cooking, slice the avocado and prepare the cabbage by shredding it finely.
- For the avocado crema, mash the avocado in a bowl and mix with sour cream and a squeeze of lime juice until smooth.
- Warm the corn tortillas in a dry skillet for about 30 seconds on each side.
- Slice the cooked chicken into strips and assemble the tacos by placing chicken on tortillas, topping with cabbage, avocado slices, and a dollop of avocado crema. Squeeze additional lime juice on top before serving.
