Ingredients:
1 /2 c fresh cilantro, chopped
sour cream, optional
20-22 mini white corn tortillas, warmed on a skillet
hot sauce, optional (our favourite for Mexican food is Valentina)
Pico de Gallo
fresh lime juice
1.5 lbs. boneless skinless chicken thighs
1 /2 c fresh cilantro, chopped
For the Marinade:
1½ tbsp lime juice
3 cloves garlic, minced
¼ tsp ground cinnamon
2 tsp dried oregano leaves
freshly ground black pepper
1½ tbsp ancho chilli powder or chipotle chilli powder
1 tsp salt
2 tsp paprika
4 tbsp orange juice
2 tbsp apple cider vinegar
Directions:
In a large resealable bag, add all the marinade ingredients. Shake the bag until all the ingredients are well combined.
Add the chicken thighs, then shake the bag again until well coated by the marinade. Place it inside the fridge to marinate for at least an hour or overnight.
Prepare the grill and preheat to medium-high.
Brush the grill with oil and allow it to become hot.
Add the marinated chicken thighs over the preheated grill.
Cook each side for 5 minutes or more until done.
Transfer the grilled chicken onto a clean plate. When cooled, chop into small pieces.
Top each mini corn tortilla with chopped chicken, sour cream, Pico de Gallo, hot sauce, and cilantro.
Drizzle a bit of lime juice over the top.
Serve and enjoy!
Note:
I love serving this with Mexican Rice or any Mexican dish.
