Yellow onion, grated 2 tbsp.
Red wine vinegar 2 tbsp.
Lime juice 2 tbsp.
Thai sweet chili sauce 1/4 cup
Green onion, thinly sliced 2 tbsp.

Directions

    1. Mix all marinade ingredients together, minus the sweet chili sauce and scallions. Mix the chicken thighs with the marinade and refrigerate for 2 to 4 hours.
    2. While the chicken is marinating, take 2 sauce pans, and add the rice wine vinegar to one (with ½ cup of water), and the red wine vinegar (with ½ cup water) to the other. Place ¼ cup of sugar and 2 tablespoons of salt into each pan. Bring to a boil to dissolve salt/sugar, and remove from heat.
    3. Place cucumbers, carrots, and red onions in 3 separate non-reactive/heat-tolerant containers. Pour the red wine vinegar mixture over the red onions, and the rice wine vinegar mixture over the carrots and cucumbers. Let steep at room temperature for 1-2 hours, then refrigerate until ready to use.
    4. For the cilantro aioli, add all of the ingredients to a food processor and puree until smooth. Refrigerate until ready to use.
    5. Once the chicken is finished marinating, remove it from the excess marinade. Place thighs onto a medium to medium-high preheated grill. Grill for 5-6 minutes per side. Make sure that an internal temperature of 170°F is reached at the thickest part of the thigh.
    6. Remove from the grill, let rest for 5-10 minutes, and rough chop into ¼ – ½ inch pieces.
    7. Add the chicken to a medium bowl, and mix with the sweet chili sauce and scallions.
    8. Warm up taco shells and assemble tacos.
