ingredients:

  • 2 chicken breasts

  • 1/2 red onion

  • @bourbonbarrelfoods spicy teriyaki (or your fave!)

  • 3 large slices pineapple

  • 3-4 baby radishes

how to chicken:

  1. Add both chicken breasts + 1/2 chopped red onion to the crockpot

  2. Top with your teriyaki sauce & cook on low for 4 hours or high for 2

  3. Shred with a fork toward the end

how to pineapple pico:

*do this once you get the chicken in the crockpot! You want it to marinate all flavors!

  1. 🍍coat your pineapple pieces in chili lime (you can use plain chili powder if you don’t have! It makes AMAZING FLAVOR). Place on your regular grill (or stovetop) for about 3 min each side to get grill marks

  2. let cool - slice radishes + bell pepper + shallot into tiny pieces (remember this is a salsa!) & add to bowl

  3. cut pineapple of the core and dice in small pieces & add with LOTS of chopped cilantro

  4. add juices of lime & orange - toss! Let sit and marinate for as long as possible

  5. cut your garnish avo & jalapeño (if you like)

  6. grab you taco shells or greens & build these things! Chicken + Pico + garnish - E N J O Y
