Time 2h40m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 cup tomatoes, seeded and diced
1 medium red onion, diced, divided
1 cup diced fresh pineapple
1 tablespoon chopped fresh cilantro
1 tablespoon fresh lime juice
½ teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon white sugar
1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into 1-inch strips
1 lime, juiced
8 (7 inch) tortillas, or more as needed
1 cup shredded lettuce
8 dashes Sriracha sauce, or more to taste

Steps:

  • Combine tomatoes, 1/2 cup diced red onion, pineapple, and cilantro in a medium bowl. Add 1 tablespoon lime juice, salt, and sugar; toss to combine. Cover salsa with plastic wrap and place in the fridge for at least 2 hours.
  • Place the remaining red onion in the bowl of a small food processor. Add juice of one lime and process until finely ground, about 3 minutes.
  • Place chicken strips into a shallow dish. Slather onion mixture over the chicken, and refrigerate for at least 2 hours.
  • Preheat an outdoor grill to high heat, about 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Lightly oil the grill.
  • Cook until chicken is no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, 3 to 4 minutes per side. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C). Remove to a plate.
  • Lightly brown the tortillas on the grill for 30 seconds to 1 minute. Drain the salsa.
  • Thinly slice the chicken, against the grain. Lay tortillas out on plates, top with lettuce, chicken, pineapple salsa, and Sriracha sauce.

1 lb chicken breasts pounded to 1/2 inch thickness
Chili Lime Rub:
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 teaspoon chili powder
1-4-1/2 teaspoon chipotle chili powder (optional for more heat)
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika
1/2 teaspoon onion powder
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
3/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
1 teaspoon brown sugar
fresh-squeezed lime juice from 1 lime (about 2 tablespoons)
Lime zest from 1 lime
Grilled Pineapple Salsa:
1/2 ripe pineapple, trimmed and sliced
1 large red bell pepper, seeded and quartered
1/2 small red onion, peeled and cut in half (so you have 2 quarters of whole onion)
1 whole jalapeno
1 tablespoon lime juice
1/4 teaspoon ground ginger
1/4 teaspoon ground cumin
salt and pepper to taste
olive oil
4 flour tortillas or 6-8 corn tortillas
1/2 cup favorite cheese, more or less
Avocado Crema:
1 medium avocado
1/2 cup sour cream
2 tablespoons mayonnaise
1 tablespoon lime juice
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon ground cumin
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder

Steps:

  • 1. CHICKEN DIRECTIONS - In a small bowl, whisk chicken rub ingredients together and rub evenly all over chicken breasts. Time permitting, allow chicken to sit for 30 minutes at room temperature or refrigerate up to 8 hours then bring to room temperature for before cooking. STOVETOP DIRECTIONS If chicken has been refrigerated, let sit at room temperature for 15-30 minutes (time permitting). Heat a large non-stick skillet over medium high heat. Once very hot, add chicken and cook, undisturbed for 3-5 minutes, or until nicely browned (or blackened if you prefer) on one side. Turn chicken over, cover, and reduce heat to medium. Cook for approximately 5-7 more minutes (depending on thickness of chicken), or until chicken is cooked through. Remove to a cutting board and let rest 5 minutes before slicing. 2. GRILLED PINEAPPLE SALSA DIRECTIONS: Grease grill and heat to medium high heat. Drizzle red onions with olive oil. Drizzle red bell pepper quarters and jalapeno with olive oil to lightly coat. Working in batches as needed depending on grill size, grill pineapple and vegetables at medium high heat until tender and lightly charred all over, about 12 minutes for the onions, turning occasionally, about 8-10 minutes for the pineapple, or until caramelized, flipping once, 6 minutes for the red bell peppers, flipping once, and jalapeno for 3-5 minutes, turning occasionally. Once cool enough to handle, dab off any excess oil with paper towels from vegetables and chop pineapple (cutting around core), red bell peppers, and onions. Devein and deseed jalapeno and dice, reserving some of the seeds if desired. Toss pineapple, red bell pepper, red onion, jalapeno, cilantro, lime juice, ginger, cumin and salt and pepper to taste in a large bowl. If you would like it spicier, add some of the jalapeno seeds to taste. Can be served immediately or even better chilled. 3. AVOCADO CREMA DIRECTIONS: To make the Avocado Crema, add all the Crema ingredients to your blender and blend until smooth, scraping sides down as needed. May make 4 hours ahead of time and refrigerate in an airtight container. 4. ASSEMBLE TACOS: To assemble, melt cheese on tortillas in the microwave or stovetop then top with Chili Lime Chicken, Pineapple Salsa followed by Avocado Crema.
