Ingredients
  

  • 1 lb boneless skinless chicken thighs
  • 1 head butter lettuce
  • 1 small avocado
  • 2 tablespoons chopped cilantro
  • 1 tablespoon chopped green onions
  • 1 small lime
  • 1 tablespoon coconut oil
  • 1 tablespoon minced garlic
  • 1 tablespoon minced ginger
  • 1 teaspoon ground smoky chipotle
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • 1 teaspoon chili powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper

Instructions
 

  • Cube avocado and mix with cilantro, green onion and juice of lime. Set aside.
  • Dice chicken thighs into bite sized pieces. Toss with minced garlic, ginger, spices, salt and pepper.
  • Melt coconut oil in a frying pan over medium heat. Put chicken into pan and cover with coconut oil. Sizzle over medium heat until chicken is cooked through, about 8 minutes.
  • Divide chicken into butter lettuce leaves and top with avocado. Serve with additional lime wedges and hot sauce if you want some extra heat. I personally love to add Taco Deli's Doña sauce on these!
