Instructions
- Season the Chicken: Trim the fat off the chicken thighs if you want (I do). Toss the chicken thighs with soy sauce, oil, and garlic. Sprinkle with taco seasoning and give it a quick mix.
- Cook the Chicken: Place the chicken in the basket of an air fryer (alternate cooking instructions in the notes). Air fry at 400 degrees for 10-12 minutes – at this point it should be very crusty, golden, juicy, and delicious.
- Make the Sauce: While the chicken is cooking, blitz up the sauce in a small food processor or blender. If it’s too thick, add more water. If it’s too thin, add a bit more avocado or mayo.
- Chop the Chicken: When the chicken is done, let it stand for a few minutes and then roughly chop or pull it into bite-sized pieces. Squeeze some lime juice over it. *chef’s kiss*
- You’re Done! Yum! A dollop of sauce into a tortilla, a big pile of that juicy chicken, and finish with cilantro and diced onion (and probably more sauce)! It is a dream come true.
