Ingredients
- ⅓ cup sour cream
- ½ lime juiced
- 1 tablespoons + 2 teaspoon Jamaican jerk seasoning divided
- 1 ½ pounds chicken breasts boneless, skinless, cut into thin strips
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
- 1 ½ cups fresh pineapple chopped
- 2 cups purple and green cabbage shredded
- 8 corn or flour tortillas store-bought or homemade, warmed
- 3 tablespoons fresh cilantro chopped
Instructions
- In a small bowl, whisk together the sour cream, lime juice, and 2 teaspoons of the jerk seasoning. Cover and refrigerate while you make the tacos.
- In a large bowl, toss the chicken strips with the remaining 1 tablespoon jerk seasoning to coat evenly.
- In a large skillet, heat the oil over medium-high heat. Add the seasoned chicken and cook for 5 to 7 minutes, until cooked through. Use a slotted spoon or tongs to transfer the chicken to a plate and cover with another plate to keep warm.
- Add the chopped pineapple to the skillet and cook with the leftover seasoning and tidbits in the pan for 3 to 4 minutes, until the pineapple is browned and its juices have begun to break down. Remove the pan from the heat, return the chicken to the pan, and toss to combine.
- To assemble the tacos, make a bed of cabbage on each tortilla, top with a scoop of the chicken and pineapple mixture, drizzle some jerk cream sauce on top, and sprinkle with cilantro.
