Pulled Chicken Tacos with Chipotle Olive Oil and Mango Balsamic
In a large bowl, coat the chicken thighs with Chipotle Olive Oil, taco seasoning, and a pinch of salt. Heat a large pan over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the chicken thighs in a single layer. Sear each side for about 5-7 minutes or until the chicken is fully cooked.
Remove the chicken from the pan and let it rest for a few minutes. Once cool enough to handle, use two forks to shred the chicken into bite-sized pieces. Transfer the pulled chicken to a bowl. Drizzle with Mango Balsamic and mix well.
Warm the taco shells or tortillas in a dry pan over medium heat for a few seconds on each side. Fill each shell or tortilla with guacamole, a generous amount of pulled chicken, then top with shredded cabbage and a sprinkle of cheese.
Yum! I love a fruity twist in a taco.
