They're fast, flavorful, and irresistibly cheesy.

Start with 3 lbs of chicken thighs, seasoned with onion powder, garlic powder, chili powder, paprika, salt, and pepper. Add 1 can of chipotle peppers, juice from one lemon, and 2 tablespoons of olive oil. Let it marinate in the fridge for an hour. Then sear in a hot skillet for 2–3 minutes per side until beautifully charred.

Stuff into warm tortillas and load up with Monterey Jack cheese for that melty finish. Customize with your favorite toppings—cilantro, onions, or even avocado.

These tacos are perfect for any day of the week. Try them out and check the full video below to see every step in action!
