Directions

Step 1

In a medium size bowl mix all ingredients for the adobo marinade.

Step 2

Marinate the boneless skinless chicken thighs with adobo marinade. Ideally, let them sit overnight in the adobo marinade in the fridge, but at least for a few hours.

Step 3

Preheat Weber Kettle with GrillGrates using Cowboy Charcoal Briquettes.

Step 4

Grill on GrillGrates for Weber Kettle until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165 degrees Fahrenheit.

Step 5

Remove from grill and squeeze the juice of ½ lime over the steak.

Step 6

Slice up into bite size pieces.

Step 7

Combine all ingredients in a Ziplock bag to create the marinade. Add steak, mix well, and refrigerate for 2-12 hours until time to grill.

Step 8

Grill for 3-5 minutes over high heat over GrillGrates. Use a thermometer to reach your preferred doneness.

Step 9

Remove from heat, let rest for 10 minutes, and slice into bite-size pieces.

Step 10

Dice the tomatoes, onion, jalapeno, garlic, and cilantro and add to a bowl.

Step 11

Add in the seasonings and lime juice.

Step 12

Stir and refrigerate until ready to serve.

Step 13

Add butter to a saucepan over medium heat.

Step 14

Once melted, add flour and whisk for 1-2 minutes.

Step 15

Slowly add 3 cups of milk and stir until thick, then add the remaining milk.

Step 16

Add seasonings, lime juice, chiles, and most of your cheese.

Step 17

Stir until cheese is melted and add more cheese if it is not thick enough or add more milk if it is too thick.

Step 18

If you are not serving immediately, you can keep this warm in a Crock-pot on low heat, stirring occasionally.

Step 19

Preheat your oil to 350 degrees.

Step 20

Cut your tortillas into quarters and add them to the hot oil.

Step 21

Fry for 3-5 minutes or until they are golden brown and crispy.

Step 22

Remove from oil and drain excess grease over a paper towel.

Step 23

Finish with salt and fresh lime juice.

Step 24

Prep your table by laying parchment paper, aluminum foil, or butcher paper from end to end.

Step 25

Layer with nachos, meat, cheese, and Pico de Gallo.
