Directions

1 Mix lime juice, oil and chili powder in shallow glass or plastic dish or heavy-duty resealable plastic food-storage bag. Add chicken and onion; turn to coat with marinade. Cover dish or seal bag and refrigerate at least 1 hour but no longer than 24 hours.
2 Brush grill rack with vegetable oil. Heat coals or gas grill for direct heat.
3 Remove chicken and onion from marinade; reserve marinade. Cover and grill chicken and onion 4 to 6 inches from medium heat 8 to 10 minutes, brushing frequently with marinade and turning once, until chicken is no longer pink in center. Discard any remaining marinade.
4 Divide chicken and onion among tortillas, placing in center. Fold one end of tortilla up about 1 inch over chicken mixture; fold right and left sides over folded end, overlapping. Fold remaining end down. Top with salsa and guacamole.

I had to make mine on the Foreman grill (middle of winter) but my house did smell amazing!! I doubled the recipe and also added mexican style rice and cheese. They were delicious and we will definitely add this to something we make again!!

My family loved this recipe. I especially loved the onions. I only used 1 onion but next time I'm going to use 2 or 3 and I may add some bell pepper. This was delicious!

I made these with alittle difference, like the salsa, was my mom's homemade salsa. And used sliced avocado instead of gucamole. It was fanastic. This one I saved and put in my cookbook.
