Salt and pepper to taste. 8 small corn tortillas. 1 cup shredded lettuce. 1 avocado, sliced. 1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro. Lime wedges, for serving.

Instructions: In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add diced onion and garlic, saut until softened. Add drained jackfruit to the skillet, break it apart using a fork. Add BBQ sauce, smoked paprika, cumin, salt, and pepper. Stir to combine. Cook for 10-15 minutes, stirring occasionally, until jackfruit is tender and coated in sauce. Warm corn tortillas in a separate skillet or microwave. Assemble tacos: spoon BBQ jackfruit mixture onto each tortilla, top with shredded lettuce, avocado slices, and chopped cilantro.
