Ingredients
Huli Huli Chicken
- ½ cup pineapple juice
- ½ cup brown sugar
- 6 tablespoons ketchup
- 6 tablespoons soy sauce
- 3 tablespoons chicken broth
- 1 ¼ teaspoons fresh ginger minced
- ¾ teaspoon garlic minced
- 2 lbs boneless, skinless chicken breast
- 24 mini corn tortillas
Pineapple, Mango, Avocado Salsa
- 1 cup pineapple diced
- 1 cup fresh mango diced
- 1 cup avocado diced
- ½ cup cilantro chopped
- 1 tablespoon fresh lime juice
- pinch sea salt
Instructions
- In a large bowl, whisk together the pineapple juice, brown sugar, ketchup, soy sauce, chicken broth, ginger, and garlic. Reserve 1 cup of the marinade in a separate bowl and set aside. Add the chicken to the main bowl and coat thoroughly. Cover and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
- In a large bowl, add the pineapple, mango, avocado, cilantro, and lime juice. Toss gently to combine, then sprinkle with sea salt, cover, and set aside.
- Heat a grill pan over medium heat and gently brush with oil or cooking spray. Drain the chicken and discard the marinade, then grill, covered, for 6-8 minutes per side, or until no longer pink and a meat thermometer inserted into the thickest portion reads 165 degrees. Baste occasionally with reserved marinade, then dice the chicken into small pieces.
- Divide the chicken and salsa between the tortillas and serve immediately.
Cup of Yum
Notes
- Divide the reserved marinade before basting to avoid contamination, so you can use half to drizzle over finished tacos, if desired.
