Instructions

Step 1
Blend all the ingredients mentioned under marinade with 2-3 tablespoons water till smooth. Marinate the chicken thighs in the mixture and set aside for half an hour or up to 2 hours. Heat oil in a pan and cook the thighs for 25-30 minutes till tender.
Step 2
Toss the vegetables with oregano, olive oil, salt and pepper and grill them in the oven at 225C/430F for 20 minutes till tender, but still crunchy.

Assembly

Step 3
Start by dividing the grilled vegetables between four lunch boxes. Place 1-2 chicken thighs in each box (I am happy with one chicken thigh, but my husband, Denver, needs two to feel full). For variety, here's the day wise plan:
Step 4
Chipotle Chicken Thighs + Grilled Vegetables
Step 5
Chipotle Chicken Thighs + Grilled Vegetables + 1/2 cup Black Beans + 1 cup Lettuce
Step 6
Chipotle Chicken Thighs + Grilled Vegetables + 1/2 cup Black Beans + 1/2 cup Cooked Rice
Step 7
Chipotle Chicken Thighs + Grilled Vegetables + 1/2 cup Quinoa + 1 cup Lettuce
Step 8
Store the sour cream and lime wedges in separate mini container so that its easy to heat these up

Notes

Step 9
Refrigerate these lunch boxes for up to 5 days
Step 10
These can just be pulled out of the fridge and reheated in the microwave for a minute or two
Step 11
I wouldn't heat the boxes with lettuce or it'll wilt. The ones with lettuce are meant to be salad boxes
