Description

Ingredients

• 8-10 flour tortillas
• 2 chicken breasts, chopped into bite-size pieces
• 1/3 cup soy sauce
• 1/3 cup brown sugar
• 2 Tbsp lemon or lime juice
• 2 Tbsp fish sauce
• 2 tsp fresh ground ginger (or 3/4 tsp dried ground ginger)
• 4 cloves garlic, minced
• 1-2 tsp sriracha hot sauce
• 1 Tbsp dried basil
• 1/2 tsp black pepper
• 1 tsp cornstarch
• 1/3 cup crunchy peanut butter
• 2 cups fresh chopped pineapple
• 3 cups packaged broccoli slaw
• 1/2 of a cucumber, peeled and sliced into matchsticks
• 1/4 of a red bell pepper, chopped
• 2 Tbsp chopped green onion
• 1 Tbsp brown sugar
• 1 Tbsp lemon or lime juice
• salt and pepper

Directions

• Make the slaw by combining all ingredients in a large bowl. Stir well and refrigerate for 30 minutes or more.
• In a medium size bowl, combine soy sauce, brown sugar, lemon juice, fish sauce, ginger, garlic, Sriracha, dried basil, black pepper and cornstarch. Add chicken pieces and marinate for 15-20 minutes. When ready to cook, add 1 tbsp of olive oil to a large skillet over medium high heat. Add chicken and marinade to the hot pan. Cook, stirring, until chicken is cooked through and sauce has slightly thickened. Add peanut butter and still until incorporated and smooth. Remove from heat. To serve, spoon the chicken mixture into your tortilla and spoon the slaw on top. I like to use a 1/3 chicken to 2/3 slaw ratio. Top with a drizzle of Sriracha, if desired. Eat immediately.
