Pour marinade into a zip bag and place chicken in to marinate for 1-2 hours. This makes enough marinade for about 8 chicken thighs or 4 breasts.

I like to use chicken thighs. After they come out of the marinade, discard the bag & the left over marinade. Grill the chicken until fully cooked – set aside & allow it to rest before you cut into pieces for your tacos.

Really – you can add anything you want to your salad. Mix it all in the Doritos bag & enjoy!
