Step 1
Combine all of the ingredients (except the chicken) in a small bowl to create a paste. Rub the paste over both sides of the chicken. Place it in an airtight container in the frige to marinate-- as little as five minutes to as long as four hours.
Step 2
Preheat your grill to 500°F.
Step 3
Grill the chicken over medium high heat, flipping it ever 3-4 minutes to ensure it cooks evenly all around. Be careful-- the oil in the marinate may cause the flames to flare up. Use long tongs to move the chicken! (Note: the oil will also cause the skin on the outside of the chicken to char. It will become blackened and may look burnt-- don't worry. It's supposed to!)
Step 4
Approximate Cook Times: Bonless Chicken Breasts (10 minutes), Bone-In Chicken Thighs (20 minutes), Bone-In Chicken Leg Quarters (25 minutes.
Step 5
Optional: Grill tortillas over medium-high heat for 15 seconds per side. A warm grilled tortilla will make your taocs extra delicous!
Step 6
Shred the chicken using two forks (be careful, it will be hot)! Serve with your favorite garnishes.
