INGREDIENTS
Origin:
This recipe combines the sweet heat of Mango Habanero with the zesty kick of Jalapeño Lime for a taco experience that's packed with bold, fresh flavors. It’s inspired by tropical and spicy street food, creating the perfect balance between sweet and spicy in each bite.
Pro Tips:
- Marinate the Chicken: Marinating the chicken in the sauces for at least 30 minutes will help infuse more flavor.
- Grill or Bake: You can grill the chicken for a smokier flavor, but baking works just as well if you don’t have a grill.
Things to Watch Out For:
- Balancing Heat: If you want to tone down the spice, add a bit of sour cream or guacamole to each taco.
- Avoid Overcooking Chicken: Cook the chicken just until it's done to keep it juicy and tender.
Process:
-
Marinate the Chicken:
- In a bowl, mix 1 oz Mango Habanero Sauce and 1 oz Jalapeño Lime Sauce. Toss in the chicken and marinate for at least 30 minutes.
-
Cook the Chicken:
- Grill or bake the marinated chicken (about 6-7 minutes per side) until fully cooked. Let it rest for a few minutes, then slice into strips.
-
Warm the Tortillas:
- Warm your tortillas on a dry skillet for about 30 seconds on each side until soft and pliable.
-
Assemble the Tacos:
- Place the sliced chicken on each tortilla. Top with shredded lettuce, diced mango, avocado slices, and drizzle with the remaining Mango Habanero and Jalapeño Lime sauces.
-
Serve:
- Garnish with fresh cilantro and lime wedges for extra flavor.
