This is a zesty little recipe for grilled BBQ chicken tacos that is relatively easy to make and tastes great! It is a mix of American Southwest flavors and Mexican ingredients. Top with guacamole and sour cream.
Ingredients
- 2 large skinless, boneless chicken breasts, pounded to 1/2-inch thickness
- 1 cup chipotle barbecue sauce
- ½ onion, chopped
- 2 tablespoons chile-garlic sauce
- 6 large flour tortillas, warmed
- 1 cup shredded Cheddar cheese
- ½ cup sliced black olives
- 1 large tomato, chopped
Directions
Step 1
Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat and lightly oil the grate.
Step 2
Cook chicken on the preheated grill until no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, 3 to 4 minutes per side. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C). Remove chicken from the grill and set aside until cool enough to handle.
Step 3
Shred cooled chicken and transfer to a saucepan. Add barbecue sauce, onion, and chile-garlic sauce and stir until chicken is coated. Cook over medium-low heat, stirring often, until steaming, about 5 minutes.
Step 4
Place a few spoonfuls of chicken mixture onto each tortilla and sprinkle with Cheddar cheese, black olives, and tomato. Roll up and serve.
