Instructions

For the Tacos

  • Mix all the ingredients together in a bowl (minus the tortillas and cheese) and marinate for at least 4 hours
  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees, and add the chicken to a greased baking sheet. Bake for 20 minutes until cooked through and shred
  • Increase the temperature to 425 degrees, line a baking sheet with corn tortillas and spray with cooking grease. Heat for 2-3 minutes (this will make them pliable)
  • Load on some cheese, chicken, then more cheese. Fold over and bake for 15 minutes until nice and crispy.
  • Top with avocado crema, diced tomatoes and cotija cheese.

For the Crema

  • Add everything to a food processor and mix thoroughly. Add to a bag, cut a corner and squeeze onto the tacos!
  • Enjoy!
