First it was @Legume's post about tacos, then chicken tacos were in the news for some reason, then yesterday EweTube gives me a Rick Bayless video on them, so, chicken tacos it is!  
Rick chopped the raw thighs and cooked them in the sauce; I deviated and drybrined overnight, sprinkled with Dizzy Pig's Redeye Express, grilled on the Small with a chunk of peach:
 

 
Tinga sauce was a can of fireroasted tomatoes, lotsa grilled white onion, garlic, minced chipotle and oregano.  Cooked it down a bit and added the grilled thighs:
 

 
Spooned the filling into toasted corn tortillas, topped with cotija cheese, sliced avocado, cilantro and a spritz of lime.  
 
 
 
Kinda messy to eat but I will be doing these again.  TFL!
