Ingredients

1 pound boneless, skinless chicken thighs
1 cup peach preserves
2 tablespoons soy sauce
1 tablespoon sriracha or hot sauce (adjust to taste)
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon onion powder
Salt and pepper to taste
8 small corn or flour tortillas
1 cup shredded cabbage or lettuce
1 avocado, sliced
Fresh cilantro for garnish

Instructions

Prepare the Chicken: Season the chicken thighs with garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper.
Make the Glaze: In a small saucepan, combine peach preserves, soy sauce, and sriracha. Heat over medium heat until the mixture is smooth and slightly thickened.
Cook the Chicken: In a skillet over medium-high heat, cook the seasoned chicken thighs for about 5-7 minutes per side, or until fully cooked and no longer pink in the center.
Glaze the Chicken: Pour the peach glaze over the cooked chicken and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, allowing the glaze to caramelize slightly.
Assemble the Tacos: Slice the glazed chicken into strips and place them in warm tortillas. Top with shredded cabbage, avocado slices, and fresh cilantro.
Serve: Squeeze lime juice over the tacos and enjoy immediately.
