Ingredients

Cost per recipe $5.01 view details
  • 6 med boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 1/2 c. vegetable oil
  • 1 env taco seasoning Juice of 1 large lime
  • 2 x (15-ounce.) cans pineapple tidbits in juice, well liquid removed
  • 1/2 lrg sweet onion, minced (red, Vidalia, etc.)
  • 1 lrg handful fresh cilantro, roughly minced
  • 1 x or possibly 2 fresh jalapenos, seeded & chopped (opt.) WEAR GLOVES

Directions

  1. In a large zipper-top freezer bag, combine marinade ingredients. Flatten each chicken breast slightly between two sheets of plastic wrap; a few hard taps with the flat side of a meat mallet will help even out the thickness. Transfer chicken to marinade bag and seal; knead/shake carefully to coat well.
  2. Chill while preparing salsa or possibly up to 24 hrs.
  3. Shortly before mealtime, combine salsa ingredients in small bowl; cover and chill till served.
  4. Heat grill to moderate heat. Drain excess marinade from chicken and grill for about 4-6 min per side, or possibly just till done. (Test thickest piece to be sure it has cooked through but not dry out; you're going to slice it anyway!)
  5. Remove chicken to cutting board and immediately slice into 1/2 inch strips.
  6. Serve wrapped burrito-style in hot flour tortillas with a spoonful or possibly two of salsa tucked inside. Leftovers reheat well, and salsa will hold in the fridge for at least 24 hrs.
