Steps:
- Preheat gas grill on high heat.
- Using a sharp knife, slice the avocados in half by cutting in a straight line around the pit.
- Place the avocado half containing the pit in your hand and face it away from you. Gently stick the tip of the knife into the side of the pit and carefully pry it out of the avocado. For a ripe avocado, the pit will pop out with little effort. You can hold a kitchen towel in your hand and place the avocado in the towel for added protection from the edge of your knife.
- Place the avocado halves on a tray. Using a pastry brush, brush oil on each of the avocado halves.
- Place the avocados on the grill, flesh side down, and grill for 3-4 minutes, until grill marks appear.
- Remove the avocados and brush with honey.
- In a small bowl, mix the mango, onions, jalapeños, cilantro, lime juice, and salt until well combined.
- Spoon the salsa into the avocados and serve.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
- Season the chicken thighs all over with salt and pepper. Working in batches if necessary, arrange the thighs skin-side down in a cold, large oven-proof skillet. Place the skillet over medium heat and cook the chicken thighs, undisturbed, until the skin is golden brown and the thighs naturally release from the skillet, 12-15 minutes. Using tongs, transfer the thighs to paper towels.
- Pour the wine and salsa verde into the skillet and stir to combine with the rendered fat and scrape up any browned bits from the bottom of the pan, then remove the skillet from the heat. Return the thighs to the skillet, skin-side up, so they are half submerged in the sauce. Transfer the skillet to the oven and bake until the chicken is cooked through and tender and the sauce has reduced and thickened, about 30 minutes.
- Remove the skillet from the oven, scatter the cubed avocados evenly around the chicken in the sauce, and let the chicken rest in the sauce for 10 minutes.
- Sprinkle with the cilantro and serve with tortillas on the side, if desired.
- Enjoy!
