Ingredients

  • 2 tbsp vegetable oil
  • 1 lb of boneless skinless chicken breast diced
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1 tsp pepper
  • 1 tsp onion powder
  • 3 tbsp unsalted butter
  • 1 tbsp garlic minced
  • 2 tbsp honey
  • 1/2 cup bbq sauce
  • 1 tbsp apple cider vinegar
  • 8 tortillas fajita or street taco size

Instructions

  • Heat the oil in a medium skillet over medium-high heat. Add the diced chicken, salt, pepper, and onion powder. Give it a good stir and cook until the chicken is golden and cooked through — we want some color here for max flavor.
  • Once the chicken’s done, transfer it to a plate and set it aside. Lower the heat to medium-low and toss in the butter and garlic. Let it sizzle for about 30 seconds until fragrant, then stir in the honey, BBQ sauce, and apple cider vinegar.
  • Pop the cooked chicken back into the skillet and stir to coat it in that glossy, sticky sauce. Keep it on low heat while you warm up your tortillas — just a few seconds in the microwave will do.
  • Load up your tortillas with the saucy chicken and pile on your favorite toppings. Serve right away and enjoy every messy, flavorful bite!
