Grilled Chicken Tacos
Grilled chicken tacos with a sweet and spicy orange adobo marinade
Servings: 2
Ingredients
The Chicken
- 1 chicken breast split
- 2 chicken thighs or just use as much chicken as you want to eat
Marinade
- 4 tbsp chipotle in adobo
- 2 garlic cloves crushed
- 1 orange juice and zest
- 1 lime zested
- 1 tsp honey
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- salt
- pepper
For Assembly
- 4 tortillas
- 1 bunch radishes thinly sliced
- 8 oz queso fresco crumbled
- 1 bunch cilantro chopped
- 1 lime in wedges, use that lime you zested before from the marinade
- 3 scallions thinly sliced
- sour cream or crema
Instructions
- First up, marinade that chicken. Place the chicken and all your marinade ingredients in a bag, or bowl if you prefer. Mix it all together and let sit for about ten mins. If you have more time great, just stash it in the fridge to keep cold, cause ya know, salmonella.
- Next prep all your toppings. Slice the radishes, crumble your cheese and so on.
- All chopped and prepped? Get to grilling. Cook the chicken for 5-7 mins per side on a screaming hot grill, or till cooked all the way through. Once your chicken in done, pull it off the grill and let sit for five mins before you slice it up. During that time I recommend tossing your tortillas on the grill for a few seconds to heat through and get just the slightest char.
- Once your chicken is done resting and your tortillas are warm. Slice that meat up and assemble those taco. Eat up!
