Cafe Rio Chicken Imitation

3 Tbs lime juice
1/2 c. olive oil
1/2 c. cilantro, chopped
1/4 c. soy sauce
2 Tbs. worcestershire sauce
1 tsp. oregano
1 tsp. cumin
2 to 4 cloves garlic, minced
2 lbs. chicken breasts

Marinate chicken and grill OR place chicken and marinade in slow cooker (I do this) and let cook 4-6 hours until chicken is tender.

Shred chicken and serve over warm flour tortillas with black beans, Spanish rice, shredded romaine lettuce, cheese, tomatoes, and tomatillo dressing (see recipe below). The dressing makes it sooo good.

Tomatillo Dressing (This makes a lot. Most of my kids don't want the dressing, but I love it. You can half the recipe).

1 c. mayonnaise
1 c. sour cream
1/2 bunch cilantro, leaves only
2 Tbs. water
1-2 Tbs. vinegar
1 jalapeno, no seeds (optional) If you use it, use a small one or a small part-they are strong
1 tomatillo, quartered
1/2 tsp. pepper
1/2 tsp. salt

Combine ingredients into food processor or blender and blend until smooth.
