Juicy grilled chicken tucked into soft mini corn tortillas, topped with zesty Pico De Gallo and fresh cilantro.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1.5 lbs boneless skinless chicken thighs or breasts
  • 1 pkg mini white corn tortillas
  • 1/4 cup fresh cilantro, chopped
  • 23 limes, cut into wedges
  • Pico De Gallo
  • 4 tbsp orange juice
  • 2 tbsp apple cider vinegar
  • 2 tbsp lime juice
  • 2 tsp minced garlic
  • 1 1/2 tbsp chili powder
  • 2 1/2 tsp paprika
  • 2 tsp dried oregano
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp black pepper
  • Avocado, sliced
  • Sour cream
  • Red onion, diced

Instructions

  1. Prepare the chicken marinade by combining orange juice, lime juice, apple cider vinegar, minced garlic, chili powder, paprika, oregano, salt, and pepper in a ziplock bag.
  2. Place the chicken in the marinade bag, seal it, and shake to coat. Allow it to marinate in the fridge for at least 1 hour.
  3. Preheat the grill over medium-high heat.
  4. Spray the grill grates with cooking spray and place the chicken on the grill. Cook for 4-5 minutes on each side until cooked through (internal temperature of 165°F).
  5. Transfer the grilled chicken to a plate to rest for a few minutes, then slice into bite-sized pieces.
  6. Layer two warm corn tortillas together, top with grilled chicken, Pico De Gallo, and chopped cilantro. Squeeze lime over the top.
  7. Customize with diced red onion, sliced avocado, and a dollop of sour cream.
