Chicken Avocado Street Tacos Recipe

Recipe By Lake Geneva Country Meats

We are taco-holics. We absolutely love tacos and hardly a taco tuesday goes by without tacos being consumed. If it's a taco tuesday, and we're not eating tacos, then you probably should call the national guard, because there's probably something seriously wrong at our house. However, when you eat tacos so regularly, you want to keep mixing up the type of tacos you're eating, and not just have the same old ground beef tacos every week. We have a ton of taco recipes that we rotate through, and this one is fast becoming a favorite. Based on tacos we've had from street vendors, this taco recipe uses a marinated, seasoned, grilled, and chopped chicken thigh as the base of the taco. You could use chicken breasts, but we much prefer thighs. We think the flavor is much better, they're more affordable, and easier to grill. To this chicken, we slices of fresh avocado, a little bit of chopped red onion, a bit of cilantro, and, of course, a squeeze of fresh lime juice. The tacos are fresh, well seasoned, and perfect to enjoy for a quick weeknight meal. We hope you enjoy them as much as we do. What do you think of this recipe? Do you have any tweaks or suggestions you'd like to share? Any other taco recipes we should be exploring? Leave us a comment below with your feedback
