Ingredients
Chicken for Tacos
1/2 cup orange juice,3 cloves garlic minced,1 tbsp neutral oil,1 tbsp white vinegar,1 tbsp chile powder chimayo chile powder preferred, optional,2 tsp ground coriander,2 tsp smoked paprika,2 tsp dried oregano,2 tsp ground cumin,1 tsp black pepper,1 tsp kosher salt or to taste
2 lbs boneless skinless chicken thighs see notes for other meats
Tacos,:12 4″ corn tortillas,2 cups shredded cheese Mexican cheese preferred,1/4 bunch fresh cilantro chopped,1/4 medium onion diced
guacamole optional,avocados diced, optional,salsa optional,hot sauce optional,limes cut into wedges.
Air fryer chicken thighs are extra juicy. Plus I love the fact that everything was made in the air fryer. You can also go for pork chops or steak if you’re not feeling chicken.
Spices. For extra flavor the chicken is marinated in orange juice, vinegar, garlic, chile powder, and a bunch of spices for an extra kick. The orange juice and vinegar tenderize the chicken making it super juicy.
Cheese. Cheese is optional but who doesn’t love cheese, especially when it’s melty?
Toppings. You can go wild here. Classic is onions and cilantro of course, but maybe do like El Parasol and add some guacamole on? We went with some lettuce, avocado slices, hot sauce, and some limes to squeeze on for some tart-freshness.
