Ingredients

For the tacos

1 package Happy Veggie World Ginger Chick'n
8 small vegan tortillas
1 to 2 teaspoons neutral cooking oil
2 to 3 teaspoons water, as needed
Fresh cilantro, for serving
Lime wedges, for serving

For the mango avocado salsa

2 cups peeled and diced mango (about 2 medium mangoes)
1 medium ripe avocado, diced
¾ cup diced red onion
½ cup diced cucumber
3 tablespoons fresh orange juice
3 tablespoons fresh lime juice
½ cup finely chopped cilantro
Sea salt, to taste

Instructions

Make the mango avocado salsa

In a medium bowl, gently combine the mango, avocado, red onion, cucumber, orange juice, lime juice and cilantro. Season with sea salt to taste. Mix carefully so the avocado stays mostly intact, then set aside while you prepare the Ginger Chick'n.
Cook the Ginger Chick'n

Heat the oil in a skillet over medium-high. Add the Ginger Chick'n from frozen or defrosted and cook for 3 to 5 minutes, stirring often, until heated through. Add a few teaspoons of water as needed while tossing to loosen the sauce and coat the pieces.
Warm the tortillas

Warm the tortillas in a dry skillet, oven or microwave until soft and flexible.
Assemble the tacos

Fill each tortilla with the warm Ginger Chick'n. Top with mango avocado salsa, extra cilantro and a squeeze of fresh lime. Serve immediately and enjoy.

Serve it with

Cilantro lime rice
Black beans
Shredded cabbage
Vegan crema
Pickled red onions
Fresh jalapeños

Keep it vegan: To keep this recipe fully vegan, use tortillas that do not contain lard, dairy, honey or other animal-derived ingredients. For extra creaminess, pair with a plant-based crema or dairy-free yogurt sauce.
