Boulder Valley School District
Boulder, Colo.
These tacos were originally created by Centennial Middle School students for the district's Iron Chef Competition. All the recipes had to feature fresh, unprocessed ingredients and meet the health and sustainability guidelines set by the district. These tacos, made with spice-rubbed chicken thighs, fit the bill and now are served for school lunch.

1 1/2 tsp. sunflower oil

6 flour tortillas
