Experience Ultimate Flavor with Korean BBQ Chicken Tacos– Introducing Korean BBQ Chicken Tacos. This flavorful fusion dish not only tantalizes your taste buds but also supports your overall health and wellness journey. Packed with vibrant flavors and wholesome ingredients, these tacos offer a delicious twist on traditional favorites while providing numerous health benefits.

First and foremost, the main ingredient, chicken, is an excellent source of lean protein, essential for muscle repair and growth, keeping you feeling full and satisfied for longer periods. Additionally, chicken is rich in important nutrients like selenium and vitamin B6, supporting immune function and overall well-being.

The inclusion of Korean BBQ sauce adds a burst of savory-sweet flavor derived from a blend of ingredients like soy sauce, garlic, ginger, and honey. Not only does this sauce elevate the taste profile of the dish, but it also provides antioxidant properties, helping to combat oxidative stress and inflammation in the body.

Furthermore, opting for tacos made with whole grain or corn tortillas instead of refined flour tortillas offers additional nutritional benefits. Whole grains are high in fiber, which promotes digestive health, regulates blood sugar levels, and reduces the risk of chronic diseases such as heart disease and type 2 diabetes.

Moreover, the fresh and colorful toppings, such as shredded cabbage, sliced radishes, and cilantro, add crunch and freshness and contribute an array of vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants to the meal, supporting overall health and vitality.

Gluten-Free, Dairy-Free, Serves 4

For the Korean BBQ Chicken:

  • 1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breasts, thinly sliced
  • 1/4 cup gluten-free tamari sauce
  • 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
  • 2 tablespoons pure maple syrup
  • 1 tablespoon sesame oil
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tablespoon sesame seeds
  • 3 green onion, sliced
  • 1 teaspoon grated fresh ginger

For the Tacos:

  • 8 gluten-free soft taco-sized tortillas
  • 1 cup shredded red cabbage
  • 1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro
  • 1 carrot, julienned
  • Lime wedges, for serving

Directions:

Whisk together tamari sauce, pure maple syrup, minced garlic, grated ginger, sesame oil, rice vinegar, and sesame seeds to create the marinade. Place the sliced chicken in a resealable plastic bag or a shallow dish and pour the marinade over it. Seal the bag or cover the dish, then marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes (or longer for more flavor). Preheat a skillet or grill pan over medium-high heat. Cook the marinated chicken slices on each side for 3-4 minutes until cooked through and slightly caramelized. Remove from heat and set aside.

Warm the gluten-free tortillas according to the package instructions. Place a layer of shredded red cabbage on the tortilla to assemble each taco. Add a few slices of cooked Korean BBQ chicken on top of the cabbage. Sprinkle with julienned carrots and chopped cilantro. Squeeze a lime wedge over the toppings for an extra burst of flavor. Repeat the process for the remaining tortillas. Serve the Korean BBQ Chicken Tacos immediately with extra lime wedges on the side. Enjoy these delicious and flavorful Korean BBQ Chicken Tacos as a satisfying, dairy-free meal option!
