Chicken + Pineapple + BBQ Sauce? Yes, please! Those three flavors remind me so much of my Maui honeymoon – savory and sweet, all in one! {Wah! I wanna go back!}
In each bite you’ll taste sweet pineapple, sauteed red onions and gooey cheese, wrapped in a crunchy tortilla.
You’ll love how this recipe is super quick to prepare, making it a perfect weeknight dinner. If you don’t have wraps, this chicken-pineapple mixture would make a really great pulled chicken sandwich. YUM!
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 red onion, thinly sliced
- 2 cups shredded rotisserie chicken
- 1 cup shredded cheese (I used 1/2 cup extra sharp cheddar and 1/2 cup Monterrey jack with jalapeno peppers)
- 1 cup diced pineapple
- 1/3 cup BBQ sauce (I used Jack Daniel’s Original No. 7)
- 1 tablespoons cilantro, chopped
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- 8 whole wheat tortillas, softened
- Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Heat the oil in a large pan and saute the onion until caramelized (about 10 minutes).
- In a large bowl, mix the cooked onion, shredded chicken, cheese, pineapple, BBQ sauce and cilantro. Taste and adjust with salt and pepper.
- Place 2 or 3 heaping tablespoons of the chicken mixture into one tortilla at a time. Roll tightly, then place bottom-seamed down onto the parchment paper.
- Bake for 15 minutes. Enjoy with extra BBQ sauce for dipping.
