Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 1 lb boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into 1-inch strips
  • 1/4 cup cornstarch
  • 1/2 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/2 tsp smoked paprika
  • 1/2 tsp kosher salt, plus more for the slaw
  • 3 tbsp neutral oil
  • 1/4 cup honey
  • 2 tbsp hot sauce
  • 1 tbsp unsalted butter
  • 1/2 tsp red pepper flakes, optional
  • 3 cups shredded green cabbage
  • 1/2 cup shredded carrots
  • 3 tbsp mayonnaise or plain yogurt
  • 1 tbsp fresh lime juice
  • 4 large flour tortillas, warmed

Method
 

  1. Toss cabbage, carrot, mayonnaise, lime juice, and a pinch of salt; set aside.
  2. Coat chicken strips with cornstarch, garlic powder, paprika, and salt. Fry in oil over medium-high heat until golden and cooked through, about 4-5 minutes per side.
  3. In the same skillet over medium-low, combine honey, hot sauce, butter, and red pepper flakes; simmer until thickened, 2-3 minutes.
  4. Return chicken to the skillet and toss to coat in the sauce; let sit 1 minute.
  5. Warm tortillas, fill with slaw and chicken, fold sides in, and roll tightly. Slice in half before serving.

Notes

If you prefer less heat, start with 1 tablespoon of hot sauce and taste the glaze before tossing. For the crispiest chicken, do not skip the cornstarch and avoid overcrowding the pan. The slaw can be made a day ahead; just store it covered in the fridge.
