Today’s Recipe: Spicy Pineapple Chicken Tacos

Hey there, fellow foodies! Today, I’m excited to share a fun and flavorful recipe for Spicy Pineapple Chicken Tacos. This dish is perfect for bringing a bit of sunshine to your day, with a delicious combination of sweet and spicy flavors that will leave your taste buds dancing. Let’s get cooking!

Ingredients:

  • boneless, skinless chicken breast (400g)
  • pineapple chunks (200g)
  • red bell pepper, sliced (1)
  • red onion, sliced (1)
  • taco seasoning (30g)
  • jalapeno, diced (1)
  • lime, juiced (1)
  • cilantro, chopped (a handful)
  • olive oil (30ml)
  • salt and pepper to taste
  • tortillas (6)

Kitchen Tools:

  • skillet
  • knife
  • cutting board
  • tongs
  • citrus juicer

First, heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the chicken breast and season with taco seasoning, salt, and pepper. Cook until chicken is browned on both sides and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes per side.

While the chicken is cooking, heat another skillet over medium heat. Add the pineapple chunks, red bell pepper, red onion, and jalapeno. Saute until the veggies are tender and slightly caramelized, about 5-7 minutes. Squeeze lime juice over the mixture and stir in chopped cilantro.

Once the chicken is cooked, shred it using two forks. Add the shredded chicken to the pineapple and vegetable mixture, tossing everything together until heated through and well combined.

Warm the tortillas in a dry skillet or microwave. Spoon the chicken and pineapple mixture onto each tortilla, and garnish with extra cilantro and a squeeze of lime juice, if desired.

These Spicy Pineapple Chicken Tacos are bursting with flavor and perfect for a quick and tasty meal. Enjoy them with your favorite toppings such as avocado, salsa, or sour cream. Make them your own by adding different spices or veggies!
