Adobo Chicken Skewers Tacos

Ingredients:

  • 6-7 lbs. boneless chicken thighs
  • 12 oz. chipotle adobo sauce for marinating
  • Taco-sized flour tortillas
  • 2 bags of coleslaw mix
  • 1 pineapple
  • 1 bunch of cilantro, fresh
  • 1-2 limes, fresh
  • Cotija cheese, Mexican
  • Siracha sauce

Instructions:

  1. Take the boneless chicken thighs out of their packaging and rinse them well.
  2. Coat the chicken with the chipotle adobo marinade, then refrigerate for at least 2-4 hours.
  3. Preheat your grill (we used Everdure Fusion). Attach the spit, placing the first fork on, and skewer the chicken pieces one at a time, rotating each piece 45° for even shaping. Secure the meat with the forks once assembled.
  4. When the coals are ready, set the spit to level 2 and start the rotation. Keep an eye on the temperature and add more coals as needed to maintain approximately 350°F on the surface. Cook until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F, then reduce to setting 1 to crisp up the exterior.
  5. After cooking, remove the spit and allow the chicken to rest for 10 minutes. Make sure to keep the cooked lime halves for garnishing.
  6. To put together your creation, layer the sliced chicken onto a tortilla. Top with sour cream, sliced avocado, and fresh cilantro. Finish it off with a squeeze of lime juice and a drizzle of sriracha.
