Instructions

  1. Cut the chicken into 1-inch chunks (see note below). Place inside a zippy bag or other airtight container.
  2. In a bowl, mix together all the remaining ingredients except the butter. Pour into the zippy bag or container with the chicken.
  3. Seal and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight.
  4. Preheat a large skillet over medium-high heat
  5. Pour all the chicken and marinade into skillet. Cook, stirring frequently, until begin to blacken a bit on the outside and cooked through (165 °F internal temperature).
  6. Serve as desired (see post for ideas).

Notes

  • If you'd rather, you can cut the chicken into strips or leave it whole. Leaving it whole makes it easier to cook on a grill if you'd rather do that (you can always cut it up later). I prefer cutting it into the 1-inch chunks because that makes more surface area for the Cholula marinade to cover.
