Instructions:

  1. In a bowl, mix together chipotle powder, cumin, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper.
  2. Add olive oil and chicken thighs to the bowl, coating the chicken well with the spice mixture.
  3. 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.
  4. While the chicken is cooking, slice the avocado and prepare the cabbage by shredding it finely.
  5. For the avocado crema, mash the avocado in a bowl and mix with sour cream and a squeeze of lime juice until smooth.
  6. Warm the corn tortillas in a dry skillet for about 30 seconds on each side.
  7. 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.
