Ingredients
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
For the Marinade:
2 tbsp chipotle paste
2 tbsp runny honey
1 1/2 tsp tomato puree
1 tsp salt
2 large garlic cloves
Instructions
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the chipotle paste, honey, tomato puree, salt, and crushed garlic to make the marinade.
- Roughly chop the chicken thighs into bite-sized pieces and toss them in the marinade, ensuring they are evenly coated. Set aside to marinate while the oven preheats.
- Preheat the oven to 200°C (400°F).
- Spread the marinated chicken out across a baking tray and scatter the pineapple chunks over the top. Roast in the oven for 30 minutes, or until the chicken is fully cooked through.
- While the chicken is roasting, peel and finely chop the shallot. Prepare the avocado by cubing it. If using corn tortillas, lightly char them in a hot frying pan or directly on the AGA hot plate.
- Once the chicken and pineapple are done, remove them from the oven. Squeeze lime juice over the mixture and toss in the chopped shallot.
- Serve the chicken and pineapple mixture with tortillas, avocado cubes, and a sprinkle of fresh coriander. Add extra lime wedges on the side for squeezing.
Notes
- If you prefer a spicier dish, add more chipotle paste or fresh chili slices.
- Feel free to use either corn or flour tortillas depending on your preference.
- This recipe can be made ahead of time and stored in the fridge for up to 3 days.
- If you like crispy tortillas, you can lightly fry them in oil or warm them in a dry pan.
- Frozen pineapple can be used in place of fresh pineapple, but thaw it before adding it to the tray.
