Materials
-
2kg boneless and skinless chicken breast, cut into 2cm strips
-
1 can crushed pineapple
-
½ teaspoon lime zest
-
¼ cup fresh lime juice (from 2 limes)
-
3 cloves of garlic, finely chopped
-
3 tablespoons of apple cider vinegar
-
1 teaspoon chili powder
-
1 teaspoon cumin
-
½ teaspoon of salt
-
½ jalapeño, seeded and chopped (optional if you like it hot)
-
2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
-
2 tablespoons fresh coriander leaves
-
1 small red onion, thinly sliced
-
4 tablespoons of vegetable oil
-
1 green pepper, thinly sliced
-
1 red pepper, thinly sliced
-
1 yellow pepper, thinly sliced
-
12 corn or flour tortillas, preheated (optional)
Step by step process
- In a medium bowl, combine the pineapple, lime zest, lime juice, garlic, vinegar, chili powder, cumin, salt, jalapeño, Worcestershire, cilantro, and ¼ of the sliced onion.
- Add the chicken and marinate for 30 minutes at room temperature or up to 4 hours covered in the refrigerator.
- Heat 2 tablespoons oil in a large cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat. Once the oil is shimmering, working in batches, add the chicken in a single layer and cook, stirring occasionally, until cooked through, about 15 minutes.
- Add the remaining 2 tablespoons of oil to the pan and increase the heat to high. Once the oil is smoking, add the peppers and remaining onion until browned and softened, about 5 minutes.
- Return the chicken to the pan and toss to combine with the red, green and yellow peppers and onions.
- Serve filling inside tortillas with lime wedges, cilantro and avocado if desired.
