Chicken Tacos

Nothing beats some delicious chicken tacos and these might be the best ones I've made yet. Seasoned and juicy chicken bites over a light slaw with a delicious homemade guacamole!
If you have a molcajete, I highly recommend you make your guacamole in it. If you don't have one, it's a great item to have. My friends over a Cemcui in Mexico handcraft each one and they make amazing pieces that can stay out on your counter year round.
