  4. 🫑 flour tortilla.

  6. 🫑 cheddar or jack cheese.
  7. 1- start by cleaning the chicken thighs and cutting in half if they’re big. To ensure even cooking. You can also use chicken breast but in this case the thighs are better hence juicy.
  8. 2- add the spices and drizzle avocado oil. Rub very well into the meat.
  9. 3- heat a skillet or a pan large enough. Add oil to coat the bottom of the pan, then add the vegetables and sauté on high.
  10. 4- remove the vegetables into a plate, set aside. Without adding any extra oil add the boneless thighs to the hot skillet. Sear on both sides until you get a beautiful color. Add a 1/4 cup water and cover slightly to finish cooking. Make sure it’s cooked all the way through.
  11. 5- remove from the pan set on a cutting board and let cool slightly before slicing.
  12. 6- add the au jus to a side plate it will be used later.
  13. 7- you will see pan drippings at the bottom of your skillet this is the best part, that’s where all the flavor is. Return the onion, bell pepper and chicken to the skillet, turn the heat on and give it on more mix while it heating and let all the flavors come together.
