Huli Huli-Inspired Chicken Tacos
with Pineapple-Roasted Red Pepper Salsa
Traditionally, in Hawaii "Huli Huli" chicken is grilled, as "huli" means "turn." Our inspired take has all the familiar sweet and savory flavours of pineapple and soy, but as tacos! Succulent chicken is glazed in a sweet and sticky sauce, with creamy coleslaw and zingy roasted red-pepper and pineapple salsa to transport your taste buds to the tropics!
