Today’s Recipe: Spicy Pineapple Chicken Tacos

Hey there, foodies! Today I’m excited to share with you my latest creation: Spicy Pineapple Chicken Tacos. The inspiration for this dish came from a recent trip to Hawaii, where I fell in love with the tropical flavors of pineapple paired with a kick of spice. I knew I had to recreate it at home and share it with all of you!

Ingredients:

  • 200g chicken breast (diced)
  • 150g pineapple chunks
  • 100g red bell pepper (sliced)
  • 50g red onion (sliced)
  • 1 jalapeno (diced)
  • 1 lime (juiced)
  • 1 tsp cumin
  • 1 tsp paprika
  • 1/2 tsp chili powder
  • salt and pepper to taste
  • 4 tortillas

Kitchen Tools:

  • skillet
  • knife
  • cutting board
  • mixing bowl
  • spatula

To start, heat a skillet over medium heat. Add the diced chicken breast and cook until it’s no longer pink. Next, add the pineapple chunks, red bell pepper, red onion, and jalapeno to the skillet. Sprinkle the cumin, paprika, chili powder, salt, and pepper over everything and squeeze the lime juice on top. Cook for an additional 5-7 minutes until the vegetables are tender.

While the chicken mixture is cooking, warm the tortillas in a separate skillet or microwave. Once the chicken and veggies are done, spoon the mixture into the warm tortillas. Feel free to garnish with cilantro, avocado, or any other toppings of your choice.

This recipe makes 4 delicious Spicy Pineapple Chicken Tacos. Each serving weighs approximately 200g and is around 350 calories.

A little tip to make this dish even more flavorful is to sprinkle a bit of sugar over the pineapple before adding it to the skillet. The sugar will caramelize and enhance the sweetness of the fruit.

I hope you give these Spicy Pineapple Chicken Tacos a try! They’re perfect for a weeknight dinner or a fun weekend meal with friends. Enjoy experimenting with different toppings and make this recipe your own. Happy cooking!
