Recipe: Taco Tuesday!

March 24, 2015

Every Tuesday in college my roommates and I would venture to Dukes in Malibu for Taco Tuesday. This amazing restaurant settled right on the side of the ocean. The beer was cheap and the tacos were incredible! I thought in honor of it being Tuesday, I'd share with you one of my favorite taco recipes! (Oh, and it's paleo, unlike those days in Malibu!) Enjoy everyone and Happy Tuesday! Ps. It's the secret that all tacos taste better with a cold beer, so mix your paleo tacos with some non-paleo beer!

Ingredients
Tacos
  • 2 chicken breasts, cut into small chunks
  • 1 head of lettuce
  • 1 tomato, diced
  • 1 red bell pepper, sliced thin
  • 1 avocado, sliced
  • Salsa
  • 1 tablespoon chili powder
  • salt and pepper
  • 1 can of green chilies (4.5 ounces)
Slaw
  • 1 bag of coleslaw 
  • 2 limes
  • 2 radishes, sliced thin
  • red onion slices (use as much as you like) 
  • 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • salt and pepper to taste
How to Make: 
  1. Thaw chicken and cut into small strips. Season with salt, pepper and chili powder. 
  2. In a large sauté pan, heat coconut oil to medium heat. Throw in seasoned chicken and cover with can of green chilies. 
  3. While the chicken is cooking, cut your veggies and make the slaw. 
  4. Slaw directions: Take the coleslaw and put it in a bowl. Add the sliced red onion and radishes. Add the olive oil, apple cider vinegar and olive oil. Mix well. Add in the juice of 2 limes. Season with salt and pepper. Now taste it. I was looking for a sweet and tangy slaw because of the spice of the chicken. 
  5. Once the chicken is done, make your tacos! 
  6. Enjoy! 
Guys, if you haven't seasoned chicken with green chilies, you are missing out. 
 Slaw. I could eat this entire bowl by itself. 
Tacos. Yum. Happy Taco Tuesday everyone!
