Suggestions
- Alternative Ingredients: Swap avocado with cucumber for a lighter crunch. Use grilled tofu instead of chicken for a vegetarian twist.
- Garnishing Options: Add a sprinkle of toasted sesame seeds or chopped fresh cilantro for an extra kick.
- Cooking Tips: Ensure the chicken is not overcooked for juicier bites. Marinate the chicken in the lime juice for an hour before cooking for a tangier flavor.
