Chipotle Chicken Fajitas - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    1 (12 ounce) bottle chili sauce
    1/4 cup lime juice
    4 chipotle chiles in adobo
    1 lb boneless skinless chicken breast, cut into strips
    1/2 cup cider vinegar
    1/3 cup brown sugar, packed
    1/3 cup molasses
    4 medium green peppers, cut into 1-inch strips
    1 large onion, cut into 1-inch pieces
    1 tablespoon olive oil
    1/8 teaspoon salt
    1/8 teaspoon pepper
    10 flour tortillas (8 inch work best)
    1 1/2 cups chopped tomatoes
    1 cup Mexican blend cheese, shredded
Preparation
    Place the chili sauce, lime juice and chipotle peppers in a food processor; cover and process until blend. Transfer 1/2 cup to a large resealable plastic bag; add chicken. Seal bag and turn to coat; refrigerate for 1-4 hours.
    Pour remaining marinade into a small bowl; add the vinegar, brown sugar and molasses. Cover and refrigerate.
    On six metal or soaked wooden skewers, alternately thread chicken, green peppers and onion. Brush with oil; sprinkle salt and pepper. Grill uncovered, over medium heat for 10-16 minutes or until chicken is no longer pink, turning occasionally.
    Unskewer chicken and vegetables into a large bowl; add 1/2 cup chipotle-molasses mixture and toss to coat. Keep warm.
    Grill tortillas, uncovered, over medium heat for 45-55 seconds on each side or until warmed. Top with chicken mixture, tomatoes, cheese and remaining chipotle-molasses mixture.
