Chipotle BBQ Chicken Tacos
Ingredients
  • 2 large skinless, boneless chicken breasts, pounded to 1/2-inch thickness
  • 1 cup chipotle barbecue sauce
  • 1/2 onion, chopped
  • 2 tablespoons chile-garlic sauce
  • 6 large flour tortillas, warmed
  • 1 cup shredded Cheddar cheese
  • 1/2 cup sliced black olives
  • 1 large tomato, chopped
Instructions
1
Heat the outdoor grill to a medium-high temperature before applying a thin layer of oil to prevent food from sticking, making it easier to cook and clean the grill.
2
Cook chicken on the preheated grill for 3-4 minutes per side, or until it reaches an internal temperature of at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C), as indicated by an instant-read thermometer inserted into the center.
3
Once cooked, remove chicken from the grill and allow it to cool down until it's no longer hot enough to handle safely.
4
Shred the cooled chicken and transfer it to a saucepan. Add BBQ sauce, finely chopped onion, and spicy chile-garlic sauce; stir until the chicken is evenly coated with the sauce.
5
Over low heat, cook the chicken mixture for about 5 minutes, stirring frequently until it starts to steam and the flavors meld together.
6
Spoon a small amount of the chicken mixture onto each tortilla, followed by a sprinkle of Cheddar cheese, black olives, and diced tomatoes.
7
Roll up the tortillas to form a compact package and serve immediately
