GRILLED CHICKEN TACOS

Steps:

• Prepare a grill for medium heat.
• Mix the oil, chili powder and 1 teaspoon salt together in a small bowl to make a paste. Pound the chicken breasts between 2 pieces of plastic wrap to about 1/2-inch thick. Rub the chicken all over with the chili paste.
• Lightly oil the grill grates. Grill the chicken until firm to the touch and cooked through, flipping once, 3 to 4 minutes per side. Set aside to rest for 5 minutes, then shred the meat into bite-size pieces or cut into strips. Warm the tortillas on the grill and wrap in a kitchen towel to stay warm.
• Serve the chicken tacos with shredded cheese, pickled jalapenos, shredded lettuce and/or salsa for topping.

GRILLED FISH TACOS

Steps:

• Stir 1 cup onion, 1/4 cup cilantro, oil, 3 tablespoons lime juice, orange juice, garlic, and oregano in medium bowl. Sprinkle fish with coarse salt and pepper. Spread half of onion mixture over bottom of 11x7x2-inch glass baking dish. Arrange fish atop onion mixture. Spoon remaining onion mixture over fish. Cover and chill 30 minutes. Turn fish; cover and chill 30 minutes longer. Whisk mayonnaise, milk, and remaining 2 tablespoons lime juice in small bowl.
• Brush grill grate with oil; prepare barbecue (medium-high heat). Grill fish with some marinade still clinging until just opaque in center, 3 to 5 minutes per side. Grill tortillas until slightly charred, about 10 seconds per side.
• Coarsely chop fish; place on platter. Serve with lime mayonnaise, tortillas, remaining 1 cup chopped onion, remaining 1/2 cup cilantro, avocados, cabbage, Salsa Verde, and lime wedges.

GRILLED GUACAMOLE

Steps:

• In a large bowl, combine onion, tomatoes, pepper and 1 tablespoon oil; gently toss to coat. Grill, covered, over medium-high heat or broil 4 in. from heat until tender and charred, turning occasionally, 6-8 minutes. Brush avocados with remaining oil. Grill or broil avocados, cut side facing the heat, until charred, 4-6 minutes. Cool vegetables completely., Chop onion, tomatoes and pepper; set aside. Peel avocados; transfer to a large bowl and mash with a fork. Stir in vegetables, cilantro, lime juice, cumin and salt. Serve immediately with chips.

GRILLED TACO NACHOS

Steps:

• Use aluminum foil to make 4 large sheets. Size will vary depending on how big the packets become. You will need enough to completely cover the chips and toppings.
• Spray inside of each sheet with cooking spray so the nachos do not stick. I would still suggest this step even if using non-stick foil.
• Make a pile of nacho chips in the middle of each foil sheet.
• Pile on your favorite toppings from the list above, or create your own (except sour cream).
• Fold over foil on tops to make packets (don't let any of those toppings fall out!) and place on the grill or grate over a low burning campfire.
• Let cook / steam for about 10 - 15 minutes.
• Remove from heat and enjoy! As a note of caution, be careful when opening the packets as they will be hot and steam will be released. Top with sour cream.

GRILLED TACO NACHOS

Steps:

• Heat coals or gas grill for direct heat. Spray two 30x18-inch pieces of heavy-duty aluminum foil with cooking spray. Spread tortilla chips on centres of foil pieces. Mix sausage, chilies and seasoning mix; spoon over tortilla chips. Top with tomatoes and onions. Sprinkle with cheese.
• Wrap foil securely around tortilla chips. Cover and grill foil packets, seam sides up, 4 to 6 inches from medium heat 8 to 10 minutes or until cheese is melted.

GRILLED ONION & SKIRT STEAK TACOS

Steps:

• Pound beef with a meat mallet to tenderize. In a large bowl, mix beer, lime juice and 2 tablespoons oil until blended. Add beef to marinade; turn to coat. Refrigerate, covered, at least 30 minutes., Meanwhile, cut partially through onions, leaving tops intact. Drizzle with remaining oil; sprinkle with 1/4 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper., Drain beef, discarding marinade; sprinkle with the remaining salt and pepper. On a greased grill rack, grill steaks and onions, covered, over medium heat or broil 4 in. from heat until meat reaches desired doneness (for medium-rare, a thermometer should read 135°; medium, 140°; medium-well, 145°) and onions are crisp-tender, 2-4 minutes on each side. Cut steak diagonally across the grain into thin slices. Serve with tortillas, onions, cilantro and lime wedges.
