Time 25m

Yield 4 tacos, 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 cup fresh pineapple
1/2 cup chopped peeled mango
2 tablespoons minced fresh cilantro
1 tablespoon finely chopped red onion
1 tablespoon lime juice
3/4 teaspoon salt, divided
2 cups cubed cooked chicken breasts
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
1/4 teaspoon garlic seasoning, blend
8 (6 inch) warmed tortillas

Steps:

  • For pico de gallo, in a small bowl, combine the pineapple, mango, cilantro, onion, lime juice, and 1/4 teaspoon salt, and set aside.

  • Spoon 1/4 cup onto each tortilla, and fold in sides.
  • Serve with pico de gallo.

Tips:

  • Choose the right chicken: Boneless, skinless chicken breasts or thighs are both good choices for this recipe. If you're using chicken breasts, pound them thin so they cook evenly.
  • Make sure the chicken is cooked through: Use a meat thermometer to check that the chicken has reached an internal temperature of 165 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Use fresh pineapple: Fresh pineapple is best for this recipe, but you can also use canned pineapple in a pinch. Just be sure to drain the pineapple well before using it.
  • Make the pico de gallo ahead of time: The pico de gallo can be made up to 24 hours ahead of time. This will give the flavors time to meld together.
  • Serve the tacos with your favorite toppings: Some popular toppings for chicken tacos include sour cream, guacamole, salsa, and cheese.
