Today’s Culinary Invention: Spicy Pineapple Chicken Tacos

Hey there, foodies! I’m excited to share a brand new recipe with you today that combines sweet and spicy flavors in a fun and unexpected way. These Spicy Pineapple Chicken Tacos are perfect for a casual weeknight dinner or a weekend fiesta with friends. Let’s get cooking!

Ingredients:

  • 500g chicken breast
  • 1 medium pineapple, diced
  • 2 jalapenos, minced
  • 1 lime, juiced
  • 2 tbsp honey
  • 1 tsp cumin
  • 1 tsp chili powder
  • 10 corn tortillas
  • Handful of fresh cilantro, chopped
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Kitchen Tools:

  • cutting board
  • knife
  • frying pan
  • tongs
  • citrus juicer
  • grill pan

To start, season the chicken breast with salt, pepper, cumin, and chili powder on both sides. In a hot grill pan, cook the chicken for about 5-6 minutes per side, until fully cooked. Remove from heat and let it rest for a few minutes before slicing it into strips.

In a separate frying pan, combine diced pineapple, minced jalapenos, lime juice, honey, and a pinch of salt. Cook over medium heat until the pineapple caramelizes and the mixture is slightly thickened, about 8-10 minutes.

Warm the corn tortillas in a dry pan or directly over a gas flame until they are soft and pliable. Fill each tortilla with the sliced chicken, pineapple mixture, and a sprinkle of fresh cilantro.

Serve these Spicy Pineapple Chicken Tacos with a side of lime wedges and extra cilantro for garnish. Enjoy the explosion of flavors in every bite!

One clever tip for this recipe is to add a sprinkle of crumbled cotija cheese on top of the tacos for an extra layer of flavor and creaminess. It takes these tacos to the next level!
