- Grill avocado halves cut-side down for 2-3 minutes until nice grill marks appear and they're slightly softened.
- Warm tortillas on the grill for 30 seconds on each side to enhance flexibility.

Tips
- • Always preheat your grill to ensure perfect char marks and even cooking • Use a meat thermometer to check chicken reaches 165°F for food safety • Cut vegetables and chicken into uniform sizes for consistent grilling • Don't overcrowd the grill—cook in batches if needed to maintain high heat • Brush avocados lightly with oil to prevent sticking and enhance grill marks • Let chicken rest for 2-3 minutes after grilling to retain juiciness • Warm tortillas just before assembling to improve flexibility • Serve immediately for the best temperature and texture experience • Optional: Add a squeeze of lime or a dollop of sour cream for extra flavor
