How to Prepare Avocado Cilantro Lime Vegan ‘Chicken’ Tacos with Spicy Aioli [Vegan]
To Make the Marinade:
- Add all ingredients to a blender and purée until smooth.
- Add additional oil, if needed, to desired consistency. It should be easily pourable.
- Add your favorite protein to a bowl or resealable plastic bag.
- Add enough marinade to coat liberally, cover, and refrigerate for at least one hour. While protein is marinating, you can prepare the kale and sauces.
To Make the Kale:
- Add desired amount of chopped kale to a mixing bowl.
- Add 1 tablespoon of dressing to every 2 cups of kale. You just need a little to coat and massage. Using your hands, massage the dressing into the kale. Make sure you coast every leaf and massage until you feel the kale get a little more tender. Set aside, or refrigerate until ready to serve.
To Make the Spicy Aioli:
- Mix mayo with hot sauce at a ratio of 1/2 cup mayo to 1 tablespoon hot sauce...more if you like it even spicier.
- Transfer to a squeeze bottle (if you want to be fancy) or a small sandwich bag, that you can snip the corner off to get the same drizzle action...or just spoon it on.
To Make the Tacos:
- Pre-heat a frying pan over medium high heat.
- Add marinated protein to the pan and sautée until cooked through and slightly browned.
- Place a bed of kale on the toasted tortilla, then your protein, then a big drizzle of sauce, then onions, cilantro, and extra hot sauce if desired.
