1 lbs. boneless skinless chicken thighs, or chicken breasts
½ c. Bolthouse Farms cucumber ranch dressing, plus additional for serving
2 tbsp. fresh lime juice
1 tbsp. Hy-Vee chili powder
12 gluten-free fajita size corn tortillas, warmed

Things To Grab

  • Large resealable plastic bag
  • Large bowl

Directions

  1. In a large resealable plastic bag, combine chicken, dressing, lime juice, and chili powder, turning to coat. Place bag in a large bowl and refrigerate for 4 hours or overnight.
