Honey Chipotle Chicken Tacos with Cilantro Lime Sauce
15 mins prepServes 4
Sweet and slightly spicy glazed chicken is the key ingredient in these fast and easy tacos. Add a creamy, tangy cilantro lime sauce and crunchy slaw to feed your taco craving.
1 To make the sauce, combine the yogurt, sour cream, cilantro, garlic, lime juice and jalapeño in a blender or food processor. Blend until smooth. Season with salt. Refrigerate for up to 3 days.
2 To make the marinade, whisk together the first six ingredients (through black pepper). Combine with chicken and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes and up to a day.
3 To make the slaw, whisk together the honey, oil and lime juice. Toss with the cabbage, radishes and cilantro and season with salt and pepper.
4 Place a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the oil and, when it begins to shimmer, use tongs to remove the chicken pieces from the marinade and place them in the hot pan (be careful - the marinade will splatter when it his the hot pan). Heat the chicken, turning once, until nearly cooked through, about 6 minutes and then pour the remaining marinade into the pan. Continue cooking until the marinade is sticky and coats the chicken and the chicken is cooked through, 2 to 3 minutes more.
5 Cover the tortillas with a slightly damp paper towel and microwave just until warm, about 15 seconds. Top the tortillas with slaw, chicken and drizzle with sauce to serve.
