4 to 8 chicken breasts
1/2 cup olive oil
1 orange

3 cloves garlic, minced
1 tablespoon chili powder
2 teaspoon cumin
1 teaspoon smoked paprika
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1 teaspoon kosher salt
½ teaspoon black pepper

INSTRUCTIONS
Chicken
Trim fat off chicken breasts then pound each chicken breast in a gallon zip-lock bag or between two pieces of plastic wrap so they are even and thinned.
Combine all ingredients and then add to a zip-lock bag with the chicken. Massage the bag to make sure all the chicken is covered. Marinate for 4 to 12 hours. Make the aioli.
Once you are ready to cook the chicken. Prepare your grill as you would for grilling chicken. Grill till cooked through to 165º. Rest for fifteen minutes then slice into thin pieces.
Use street-sized flour or corn tortillas, shredded lettuce, salsa, and the aioli for toppings.
Chipotle Aioli
Add two chipotle peppers from the can to a food processor and blend until pureed. Scrape down the bowl. Add the remaining ingredients and blend till smooth. Taste for heat. If not hot enough, add another pepper from the can and blend till smooth. Refrigerate until needed.
