Ingredients:

Serving

1 1/4 cups coarsely chopped fresh cilantro
3/4 cup olive oil
5 tbsp fresh lime juice
2 1/2 tsp ground cumin
1 1/4 tsp dried ancho chile powder
salt and pepper
6 boneless skinless chicken breast halves
3 large fresh poblano chiles, seeded and cut into 3/4-inch-wide strips
3 large yellow bell peppers , cut into 3/4-inch-wide strips
2 red onions, sliced into 1/2-inch rounds
12 (8 inch) flour tortillas

Directions:

Prepare barbecue (medium heat). Puree first 5 ingredients in processor. Season marinade with salt and pepper.
Place chicken breast halves in 13x9x2-inch glass baking dish. Pour 1/3 cup marinade over; turn to coat. Arrange poblano chiles, bell peppers, and onions on large rimmed baking sheet. Pour 1/2 cup marinade over; turn to coat. Sprinkle chicken breasts and vegetables with salt and pepper. Reserve remaining marinade.
Grill chicken until cooked through, about 7 minutes per side. Grill vegetables until tender, turning frequently, about 15 minutes for onions and 12 minutes for poblanos and bell peppers. Grill tortillas until charred, about 1 minute per side.
