Ingredients:

Serving

4 boneless skinless chicken breasts (i like
1/3 cup fresh lemon juice
1 tsp kosher salt
1 tsp dried whole mexican oregano, rubbed
3 garlic cloves, minced
1 tbsp olive oil
1 tbsp ground guajillo chile
3 tbsp sugar
1/4 tsp kosher salt
refried beans
fresh corn tortilla, warmed
guacamole
pico de gallo

Directions:

In a nonreactive bowl, combine the chicken, lemon juice, salt, oregano, garlic, and oil; mix thoroughly. Refrigerate for up to 4 hours.
To make the Lucas spice: Stir together the ground chile, sugar, and salt in a small bowl. Set aside.
Half an hour before cooking, clean the grill thoroughly with a brush and wipe it down with an oil-dampened rag. Preheat the grill on high. Grill the chicken on both sides and then dust lightly with the spice mix. Grill 2 minutes more on each side.
Remove to a platter. Cut into thin strips or dice.
To serve, smear some beans inside a tortilla. Stud with the chicken and top with a small amount of guacamole and pico de gallo.
Note: The chicken may be roasted instead of grilled.
