Delicious Lemon Honey Glazed Chicken Tacos

This recipe features tender chicken thighs marinated in a lemon and honey glaze, grilled until juicy, and served in soft corn tortillas. The dish takes about 30 minutes to prepare and serves 4 people.

Ingredients

1 pound boneless, skinless chicken thighs
1/4 cup honey
1/4 cup fresh lemon juice
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 cloves garlic minced
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
8 small corn tortillas
1 avocado sliced (optional)
Fresh cilantro for garnish (optional)

Instructions

Marinate the Chicken: In a bowl, whisk together honey, lemon juice, olive oil, minced garlic, salt, and pepper. Add the chicken thighs and coat well. Marinate for at least 15 minutes.
Grill the Chicken: Preheat the grill to medium-high heat. Remove the chicken from the marinade and grill for about 6-7 minutes on each side, or until fully cooked and juices run clear. Let it rest for a few minutes before slicing.
Warm the Tortillas: While the chicken is resting, warm the corn tortillas on the grill for about 30 seconds on each side until pliable.
Assemble the Tacos: Slice the grilled chicken and place it in the warm tortillas. Top with avocado slices, fresh cilantro, and salsa if desired.
Serve: Enjoy the tacos immediately while warm, paired with your favorite sides.
