Cooking Steps
  1. In a bowl, combine soy sauce, honey, garlic powder, ground ginger, and olive oil. Add chicken thighs and marinate for at least 15 minutes.
  2. Heat a skillet over medium-high heat and cook the marinated chicken for 5-7 minutes on each side, or until cooked through. Remove from heat and let rest.
  3. In a separate bowl, mix together fresh pineapple, jalapeño, red onion, cilantro, lime juice, and salt to make the salsa.
  4. While the chicken rests, warm the corn tortillas in a dry skillet for about 30 seconds on each side.
  5. Slice the cooked chicken and assemble the tacos by placing chicken, lettuce, avocado, and salsa on each tortilla. Serve immediately.
