Delicious one pan chicken and pineapple tacos infused with a smoky marinade and served with fresh toppings.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 skinless boneless chicken thighs
  • 200g fresh pineapple chunks
  • 1 small shallot
  • Juice of 1 lime, plus extra wedges for serving
  • Small handful of fresh coriander, roughly chopped
  • 1 ripe avocado, cubed
  • 8 small corn or flour tortillas
  • 2 tablespoons chipotle paste
  • 2 tablespoons runny honey
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons tomato puree
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 2 large garlic cloves

Instructions

  1. Whisk together the marinade ingredients in a medium bowl and crush the garlic into the mixture.
  2. Slice the chicken thighs into bite-sized pieces and toss in the marinade until well coated. Set aside to marinate.
  3. Preheat your oven to 200 degrees Celsius.
  4. Spread the marinated chicken across a baking tray and sprinkle the fresh pineapple chunks on top.
  5. Roast everything in the oven for 30 minutes until the chicken is cooked through and the pineapple is caramelized.
  6. While the chicken cooks, peel and finely chop the shallot and cube the avocado.
  7. Optionally, heat corn tortillas by lightly charring them in a hot frying pan.
  8. After 30 minutes, remove from the oven, squeeze lime juice over the mixture, and toss with chopped shallot.
  9. Serve the filling in the tortillas, garnished with fresh coriander and avocado.

Notes

If you prefer more heat, adjust the amount of chipotle paste in the marinade. For an extra layer of flavor, marinate the chicken longer.
