Ingredients Equipment Préparation Notes

Ingrédients
  

  • 2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 1 cup pineapple chunks fresh or canned
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tsp taco seasoning
  • 8 small corn or flour tortillas
  • 1/2 cup diced red onion
  • 1/2 cup chopped cilantro
  • lime wedges for serving

Équipement

  • Large Skillet
  • Kitchen knife
  • Cutting Board
  • Wooden Spoon
  • Citrus juicer

Préparation
 

  1. Prepare all ingredients: dice the onion, chop the cilantro, and cut the pineapple into chunks if using fresh.
  2. Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Season chicken breasts with taco seasoning and cook for 5–7 minutes on each side, until golden and cooked through (internal temperature 165°F).
  3. Add pineapple chunks to the skillet and sauté for 2–3 minutes until lightly caramelized.
  4. Remove chicken from the pan, let it rest for a minute, then slice into strips.
  5. Warm tortillas in the same skillet for about 30 seconds per side.
  6. Assemble the tacos: fill each tortilla with sliced chicken, pineapple, diced red onion, and cilantro.
  7. Serve immediately with lime wedges and optional hot sauce.

Notes et conservation

For deeper flavor, marinate the chicken in taco seasoning and olive oil for 1 hour before cooking. You can substitute shrimp or tofu for chicken for a different twist. Leftovers keep for up to 3 days in the fridge.
