Chipotle honey chicken thighs, black beans, cilantro lime rice, fajita peppers + onions, corn sliced off the cob, lettuce, cheese, roasted red salsa, and avocado crema.
Queso was made using a roux, evap milk, then added freshly grated sharp cheddar, pepper jack, and can of hatched green chiles. season with salt, pepper, littleeee pinch of cumin, garlic powder, and chipotle powder. If too thick from cheese, add little bit more milk to loosen.
Chicken marinated – 3 chipotle peppers, 3 large garlic cloves, avocado oil, 3 juicy limes, splash of rice vinegar, salt + pepper, oregano, cumin, garlic powder. Blended together with an immersion blender. Taste for sweetness, salt, and acid. Add to trimmed chicken thighs, let marinated overnight.
Truthfully, I find the best thighs to be over 24-36 hour marinate. I have no issue with my chicken falling apart or getting mushy from the acid. They were suuuuper tender.
