3. Warm 6 tortillas by either wrapping them in aluminum foil and heating them up in a pre-heated 350 degree oven, for 10-15 minutes, or place 1 tortilla in a skillet for 30 seconds, flipping midway.
4. Combine 1 chopped tomato, ¼ chopped red onion, ½ can drained black beans and 1 chopped avocado together, seasoning with 2 Tbsp olive oil, salt, pepper, and red chili flake (optional).
5. To assemble the tacos, spoon the chicken into a warm tortilla, top with the tomato avocado salsa, drizzle the cilantro lime crema, and garnish with chopped cilantro and a lime wedge.
