Honey Sriracha Chicken Tacos
Honey Sriracha Chicken Tacos were my newest recipe creation and they certainly did not disappoint.
I’ve said it before, and I’ll say it again…tacos are my weakness!
So many creative twists and spins, one more delicious than the next.
Oh tacos, how I love you! Ummm, uhhh…sorry husband 😉
Since we are talking favorites here (well, I’m rambling and if you’re still hanging in there and reading, bless you) my favorite chicken cut is the boneless, skinless chicken thigh.
Lots more flavor and juiciness than a breast, also slightly less expensive.
How to make Honey Sriracha Chicken Tacos
So I went with two pounds of boneless, skinless chicken thighs that I cut into bite size pieces.
Then put them in a skillet over medium heat with some olive oil, kosher, salt, and pepper.
Cook the chicken for about 6 to 8 minutes, stirring a few times.
Then add some Sriracha, honey, and soy sauce.
Give it a good stir and let this bubble away over medium heat for another few minutes.
It will thicken slightly and create a glaze over the chicken.
As the chicken is finishing up, make the ranch slaw to top these tacos.
I used a bag of broccoli slaw, a can of corn (drained), chopped cilantro, and ranch dressing.
Toss it until evenly mixed and you have some crispity crunchiness for our tacos!
Now all that’s left to do is build these cute little guys!
I say “little guys” because I absolutely adore using the street size tacos.
Warm them up and fill each some chicken…
Some of the ranch slaw…
And some cheese…
Boom! Now it’s the best part, which is of course tasting these Honey Sriracha Chicken Tacos!
They are so unique and unlike any taco I’ve ever had.
A mix of sweet and spicy, the cool crunch of the slaw, the freshness from the cilantro…ok my mind is made up, I’m making these again next week 🙂
