Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

2 teaspoons chili powder
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1 teaspoon smoked paprika
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
1 1/2 pounds boneless, skinless chicken thighs
1 tablespoon canola oil
12 mini flour tortillas, warmed
1 cup pico de gallo, homemade or store-bought
1 avocado, halved, peeled, seeded and diced
1/2 cup chopped fresh cilantro leaves
1 lime, cut into wedges

Steps:

  • In a small bowl, combine chili powder, cumin, paprika, oregano, garlic powder, 1 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper. Season chicken with chili powder mixture. Heat canola oil in a large skillet over medium high heat. Working in batches, add chicken to the skillet in a single layer and cook until golden brown and cooked through, reaching an internal temperature of 165 degrees F, about 4-5 minutes per side. Let cool before dicing into bite-size pieces. Serve chicken in tortillas, topped with pico de gallo, avocado, cilantro and lime.

BAJA GRILLED CHICKEN TACOS



Baja Grilled Chicken Tacos image

I modified this taco recipe for a party of 40, and it was a huge hit. Thighs are a good substitute for chicken breasts, especially with marinating and grilling. They do not dry out as quickly and are very forgiving. Fill warm tortillas with sauteed chicken and serve with your choice of garnishes and black bean and corn salad.

Time 1h5m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 teaspoon cumin
1 teaspoon dried Mexican oregano
1 teaspoon sazon seasoning
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon salt
¼ teaspoon cayenne pepper
¼ cup fresh lime juice
1 teaspoon olive oil
1 pound skinless, boneless chicken thighs
canola oil cooking spray
1 (10 ounce) package corn tortillas, or as needed

Steps:

  • Combine cumin, oregano, sazon, garlic powder, salt, and cayenne pepper in a large bowl. Add lime juice and olive oil and stir to make the marinade. Add chicken and refrigerate for 30 minutes to 12 hours.
  • Preheat an outdoor grill for medium heat and lightly oil the grate. Grill marinated chicken until no longer pink at the bone and juices run clear, about 8 minutes per side. Transfer to a bowl and shred chicken with forks.
  • Spray canola oil onto the tortillas and heat on the grill approximately 45 seconds per side. Transfer to a plate and cover with a paper towel to keep warm. Serve with shredded chicken.
