Method

Cooking Instructions

Prepare the Chicken

Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. In a bowl, mix honey, chipotle peppers, lime juice, salt, and pepper to create a marinade. Coat the chicken breasts with the marinade and let them sit for at least 30 minutes.

Cook the Bacon

In a skillet over medium heat, cook the bacon until crispy. Remove from heat and drain on paper towels. Once cooled, crumble the bacon into pieces.

Grill the Chicken

Grill the marinated chicken breasts for about 6-7 minutes on each side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C). Once cooked, set aside to rest for a few minutes before slicing.

Sauté Vegetables

In the same skillet used for bacon, add olive oil and sauté sliced bell peppers and onion until they are tender and slightly charred, about 5-7 minutes.

Assemble Fajitas

Slice the grilled chicken and mix it with the sautéed vegetables and crumbled bacon. Serve with warm flour tortillas, sour cream, shredded cheese, Mexican rice, and frijoles a la charra.
