recipe

  • Step 1
    Wash the bell pepper & remove the seeds. Small dice the pepper.
  • Step 2
    Peel & mince the onion.
  • Step 3
    Finely chop the chipotle peppers. Adjust the quantity here based on your spice preferences!
  • Step 4
    Drain the corn & beans. Rinse both & add to a mixing bowl along with the red onion, peppers, chipotle in adobo, sugar, salt & pepper. If you have smoked paprika, we love to add a few shakes. Juice in the lemon (or lime) then mix it all together. Set aside the mixture to macerate & soak up all the flavors.
  • Step 5
    Season the chicken with salt, pepper & your other favorite spices like smoked paprika or garlic powder. Add a drizzle of oil & rub to coat evenly.
  • Step 6
    Heat a grill or grill pan over medium-high heat. Add the chicken & sear undisturbed for 3-5 min on each side or until it's cooked through. Transfer to a cutting board & rest for a few min.
  • Step 7
    Slice the chicken then heat the tortillas to your liking.
  • Step 8
    Stir the cowboy caviar then distribute evenly onto the tortillas. Top with grilled chicken. Serve & enjoy!
