MAIN:

 

1½ lbs

1

In a small bowl, mix all marinade ingredients together; set aside.

2

Place chicken in 13x9-inch pyrex pan and coat with marinade. Set aside.

3

Heat two pans: a nonstick griddle to high (or skillet), and a nonstick frying pan to medium-high. Drizzle frying pan with oil. Cook onions, peppers and chiles, stirring occasionally, until they darken around the edges, about 5 minutes. Sprinkle with salt and pepper and turn off heat.

4

Place chicken onto the very hot griddle pan. Sear for 2 minutes on each side. Remove from heat to cutting board. Slice very thin, on the bias, and return strips to grilled to brown and cook through.

5

Heat tortillas according to package directions. Fill with sizzling meat or chicken, vegetable mixture and a spoonful of salsa.

 

Servings: 4
