Street Tacos seem to be all the rage and maybe that’s because they are incredibly delicious! You can get a few different tastes in a couple of tacos and who can ever make up their mind of what they really want anyways? Personally, I love them because they are bit smaller and I feel like I can eat a few more than I really should. I created these Chili Lime Chicken Tacos because I knew my family would love them! They are full of flavor and I the best part is…I cooked them in minutes in my Instant Pot!
My family is big fans of Mexican food so I make my Green Chili Chicken Enchilada Cups, Cilantro Lime Pork Tostadas, and Beef Enchilada Bake often.
It was actually through Instagram Stories that I discovered that you could buy street taco sized corn or flour tortillas at the grocery store. They were too cute to pass up so I bought them and came up with this recipe using things I had on hand. I was also in a pinch for time so I busted out my trusty Instant Pot and the whole thing came together in minutes. If you had more time on your hands you could marinate the chicken in the Chili Lime rub for a little extra flavor. 
These tacos would be good with a few slices of avocado on them, but I promise they are ten times better with my version of Avocado Cream on them. It’s mild in flavor, but adds an intense creaminess to the tacos that is pretty fantastic!
