Instructions

  • Whisk together all of the Honey Chipotle Marinade ingredients in a shallow dish, remove 3 tablespoons to a small bowl and set aside. Add chicken to marinade, turn to coat, cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, up to 6 hours.
  • Cook the bacon pieces in a skillet over medium heat until browned and crisp, then remove to a paper towel-lined plate to drain grease.
  • Heat a large non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the marinated chicken and cook for 3-5 minutes per side, or until nicely browned and cooked through. Remove chicken to a cutting board and allow to rest 5 minutes before cutting into cubes or strips. Toss with the reserved marinade.
  • Meanwhile, in a large bowl, mix the Dijon, mayo, honey, salt, and pepper, and milk. Stir the slaw in until thoroughly coated. Stir in the tomatoes and the cooked bacon and set aside.
  • To assemble, warm tortillas and place a couple of tablespoons of cheese in each, top with chicken, a few avocado slices, and slaw.

Notes

For a variation, you can use turkey bacon or replace the bacon with nuts or crispy onions.
