Grilled Italian Chicken Tacos Recipes

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.

Steps:

• Prepare Italian dressing as directed on packaging.
• In a large plastic bag, mix Italian dressing with raw chicken, seal and refrigerate for 4 hours or overnight.
• Remove chicken from dressing. Discard plastic bag and dressing.
• Grill chicken for 4-6 minutes on each side, until chicken is cooked through.
• Slice chicken into 1/2 inch slices.
• Grill tortillas for a minute until each side until warm and golden brown.
• Serve warm tortillas with sliced chicken, cheese, lettuce and tomatoes.

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.

Steps:

• Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat and lightly oil the grate.

• Stir chili powder, cumin, coriander, brown sugar, cayenne pepper, and olive oil in a bowl until smooth; rub mixture over chicken breasts.
• Cook chicken breasts on preheated grill until no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, 10 to 12 minutes per side. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C). While the chicken is cooking, place tortillas on grill and grill until lightly brown on both sides, 3 to 5 minutes.
• Transfer chicken to a cutting board and slice into long thin strips. Divide chicken strips over tortillas and top with bean mixture, lettuce, and remaining 1/2 cup cilantro. Serve with avocado, lime wedges, and sour cream.

Steps:

• Mix marinade ingredients and place chicken and marinade in a gallon ziplock bag.
• Marinate 30 mins to 24 hours.
• Preheat grill to med high.
• Grill breasts for 3 to 4 mins per side or till juices run clear and chicken reached 155 degrees.
• Remove from grill and wrap in foil. Let sit about 5 minutes Chicken will continue to cook to 160.
• You should know your grill. Chicken may take a little longer to cook or it may take less time. The sitting is critical to the chicken staying moist.
• Enjoy.
