Prepare the avocado crema: In a blender or food processor, combine the avocado, sour cream, lime juice, cilantro, minced jalapeno, and salt. Blend until smooth and creamy. Add water, one tablespoon at a time, if needed to reach desired consistency. Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary. Set aside.

Prepare the taco filling: Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chopped onion and cook until softened, about 3-4 minutes. Add the minced garlic and cook for another minute until fragrant.

Add the ground chicken to the skillet. Break it up with a spoon and cook until browned and cooked through. Drain off any excess fat.

Stir in the chili powder, cumin, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper. Cook for an additional 1-2 minutes, stirring to coat the chicken evenly with the spices.

Warm the corn tortillas according to package directions. This can be done in a dry skillet, microwave, or oven.

Assemble the tacos: Spoon the seasoned chicken filling into the warm tortillas. Top generously with the spicy avocado crema, shredded lettuce, diced tomatoes, and pickled red onions (if using).
