Method

Marinade Preparation

1

Make the Marinade

In a medium bowl, whisk together olive oil, lime juice, minced garlic, cumin, paprika, salt, black pepper, and chopped cilantro until well combined.

2

Marinate the Protein

Place the chicken breasts and shrimp in a large resealable plastic bag or shallow dish. Pour the marinade over the protein, ensuring it is well coated. Seal the bag or cover the dish and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, or preferably overnight.

Grilling

3

Preheat the Grill

Preheat your grill to medium-high heat (about 375°F to 450°F).

4

Grill the Protein

Remove the protein from the marinade and discard the marinade. Grill the chicken breasts for about 6-8 minutes per side, or until fully cooked (internal temperature of 165°F). Grill the shrimp for 2-3 minutes per side until they turn pink and opaque.

5

Grill the Vegetables

While the protein is grilling, place the sliced bell peppers, red onion, and zucchini on the grill. Cook for about 5-7 minutes, turning occasionally until they are tender and slightly charred.

Serving

6

Prepare the Sides

Warm the corn tortillas on the grill for 1-2 minutes on each side until they are pliable.

7

Assemble the Dish

Serve the grilled chicken and shrimp alongside the grilled vegetables. Accompany with warm corn tortillas, sliced avocado, and lime wedges for squeezing over the top.
