Instructions

1 lb. shredded rotisserie chicken 8 medium corn tortillas 2 ripe, Fresh California Avocados, seeded, peeled and sliced, divided 1/8 tsp. sea salt, or to taste 1 1/2 cups coleslaw mix 1/2 cup sriracha mayonnaise 4 large radishes (optional)

Instructions:

Preheat oven to 350°F.
Chop chicken into bite-sized pieces. Spray a foil-lined baking sheet with cooking spray. Place chicken on tray and warm chicken in the oven for about 6 minutes or until sizzling, adding the tortillas to the tray for the final 2 minutes.
Meanwhile season the avocado slices with sea salt. Mash about one half of the slices, set aside.
For each serving, place 2 warmed tortillas in a shallow bowl. Spread each with some of the mashed avocado and top with the coleslaw mix or shredded lettuce.
Divide chicken between the tacos and top with sriracha mayo, then top with avocado slices and garnish with radishes, if desired. Serve immediately.

Variations: Try these tacos with breaded chicken strips from the deli department.

Serving Suggestion: Serve with pickled vegetables such as jalapeños, carrots or onions and top with Cotija cheese.

Beverage Pairing: Cold beer.

*Large avocados are recommended for this recipe. A large avocado averages about 8 ounces. If using smaller or larger size avocados adjust the quantity accordingly.
