Add the chipotle and adobo sauce and bring to a simmer. Lower the heat and cook the chicken partially covered until it\u2019s cooked through about 11-14 minutes.<\/p>\r\n<\/li>\r\n While the chicken thighs are cooking, grate the red cabbage, cube the avocado, crumble the cotija cheese, slice the limes, and tear cilantro leaves.<\/p>\r\n<\/li>\r\n Prepare your chipotle crema by blending all ingredients in a food processor until smooth. Add salt and pepper to taste. Set aside. This crema can be made in advance and refrigerated for up to 5 days.<\/p>\r\n<\/li>\r\n If using flour tortillas, warm them in a skillet on each side with a dash of oil.<\/p>\r\n<\/li>\r\n Remove the chicken from the pan and set aside. The sauce should be thick. If it\u2019s not, let it simmer for 1-2 more minutes. Once the chicken is cooled, shred it in a large bowl and pour the pan sauce over it. Serve taco with extra pan sauce and top with red cabbage, cilantro, cheese, avocado cubes and chipotle crema.\u00a0<\/p>\r\n<\/li>\r\n Serve with Uncle Matt\u2019s Organic No Sugar Added Lemonade and enjoy!<\/p>\r\n<\/li>\r\n<\/ol>\r\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" No Tuesday is complete without tacos!
