Ingredients

Method

  1. Rub the Chicken Thighs with cumin, paprika, chipotle, salt, and the juice of half a lime. Even 10 minutes of marinating pays rent.
  2. Cook in a screaming-hot oiled pan (or grill) until charred at the edges and just cooked through. Rest 5 minutes, then chop into taco-size pieces.
  3. Warm tortillas over a flame until puffed and spotted. Stack them in pairs — structural integrity matters.
  4. Build: Chicken Thighs, onion, cilantro, salsa, lime. Nothing else. Street tacos are minimalism you can eat.
