Baja Grilled Chicken Tacos Recipe

Recipesfull introduces to you: Cinco de Mayo Recipes. (Baja Grilled Chicken Tacos Recipe). I modified this taco recipe for a party of 40, and it was a huge hit. Thighs are a good substitute for chicken breasts, especially with marinating and grilling. They do not dry out as quickly and are very forgiving. Fill warm tortillas with sauteed chicken and serve with your choice of garnishes and black bean and corn salad.
