Chicken shishito tacos

Craving spicy meal? you should try shishito peppers.🌶🌶🌶

I made this meal with marinated chicken, served on corn tortillas and garnished with fresh cilantro and lime wedges. ( it is the best to marinate chickens overnight or at least 6 hours before cooking).

Cold beer goes well with this spicy food.🍺🍺🍺
