For the Chipotle BBQ Ground Chicken
- 1 lb Ground Chicken 92% Lean
- 1 Tbsp Ground Chipotle Chili Powder
- 1 tsp Garlic Powder
- 1/2 tsp Kosher Salt
- 1/2 tsp Black Pepper
- 1/2 C 120g BBQ Sauce*
- 1/2 C 120g Chicken Broth
- 2 Tbsp 30g Lime Juice (about 1 small lime)
- Tortillas for serving

- 1 Mango small diced

- 1/4 Red Onion diced
- 1/4 C 60g Lime Juice (about 2 small limes)

Cook the ground chicken in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chipotle and garlic powder, salt, and pepper towards the end of cooking.
Add the chicken broth, bbq sauce, and lime juice to the chicken and continue cooking until the mixture thickens, about 3-5 minutes. Remove from the heat.
For the mango salsa, mix everything together in a large bowl.
For slightly charred tortillas, place the tortillas directly over a low flame on a gas stovetop or on a griddle over medium heat.
*I used G Hughes Honey BBQ sauce.
