PINEAPPLE CHICKEN TACOS

Categories     main-dish

Time 16m

Yield 2 servings

Number Of Ingredients 16

2 tablespoons vegetable oil
6 boneless, skinless chicken thighs
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
4 scallions, thinly sliced
2 cloves garlic, minced
One 6-ounce can 100% pure pineapple juice
1/4 cup hot sauce
2 tablespoons honey
4 small flour tortillas
12 ounces broccoli slaw
1/2 cup mayonnaise
2 to 3 tablespoons chipotle sauce
1 lime, zested and juiced
1/2 cup thinly sliced pineapple wedges
1/2 cup fresh cilantro leaves
Serving suggestions: tortilla chips and salsa

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
  • Add the vegetable oil to a large skillet set over medium-high heat. Add the chicken, season with a pinch of salt and pepper and cook, turning halfway through, 2 to 3 minutes. Add the scallions and garlic and continue to cook for another minute.
  • In a liquid measuring cup, whisk together the pineapple juice, hot sauce and honey. Add the liquid to the skillet, bring to a simmer and cook for 5 to 7 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, shingle the tortillas on a baking sheet and warm them in the oven for 5 minutes.
  • Put the broccoli slaw in a large bowl. In a separate bowl, mix the mayo, chipotle sauce, lime zest and half of the lime juice. Add the dressing to the slaw and toss. Taste and adjust the seasoning with salt, pepper and additional lime juice if needed.
  • Remove the chicken to a cutting board. Lower the heat under the skillet and continue to reduce the remaining juices to a syrup consistency. Slice the chicken.
  • To build the tacos, place the tortillas flat on a plate, add the sliced chicken down the middle and spoon on some of the reduced sauce from the skillet. Top with the pineapple, slaw and cilantro. Serve alongside chips and salsa.

Categories     World Cuisine Recipes     Latin American     Mexican

Time 2h40m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 cup tomatoes, seeded and diced
1 medium red onion, diced, divided
1 cup diced fresh pineapple
1 tablespoon chopped fresh cilantro
1 tablespoon fresh lime juice
½ teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon white sugar
1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into 1-inch strips
1 lime, juiced
8 (7 inch) tortillas, or more as needed
1 cup shredded lettuce
8 dashes Sriracha sauce, or more to taste

Steps:

  • Combine tomatoes, 1/2 cup diced red onion, pineapple, and cilantro in a medium bowl. Add 1 tablespoon lime juice, salt, and sugar; toss to combine. Cover salsa with plastic wrap and place in the fridge for at least 2 hours.
  • Place the remaining red onion in the bowl of a small food processor. Add juice of one lime and process until finely ground, about 3 minutes.
  • Place chicken strips into a shallow dish. Slather onion mixture over the chicken, and refrigerate for at least 2 hours.
  • Preheat an outdoor grill to high heat, about 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Lightly oil the grill.
  • Cook until chicken is no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, 3 to 4 minutes per side. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C). Remove to a plate.
  • Lightly brown the tortillas on the grill for 30 seconds to 1 minute. Drain the salsa.
  • Thinly slice the chicken, against the grain. Lay tortillas out on plates, top with lettuce, chicken, pineapple salsa, and Sriracha sauce.

Tips:

  • Use fresh, ripe pineapple for the best flavor. If your pineapple is not ripe, you can speed up the ripening process by placing it in a paper bag with an apple or banana.
  • To save time, you can use pre-cooked chicken or shrimp for the tacos. Just be sure to heat them through before adding them to the tacos.
  • If you don't have taco seasoning, you can make your own by combining chili powder, cumin, paprika, garlic powder, and onion powder.
  • To make the tacos even more flavorful, try grilling the pineapple and chicken or shrimp before assembling the tacos.
  • Serve the tacos with your favorite toppings, such as shredded cabbage, salsa, sour cream, and guacamole.

Conclusion:

Pineapple tacos are a delicious and easy-to-make meal that is perfect for any occasion. They are also a great way to get your daily dose of fruits and vegetables. With so many variations to choose from, you can easily find a pineapple taco recipe that everyone in your family will enjoy.
