Directions
If you have some leftover BBQ chicken from the night before….feel free to replace the chicken thighs with it. A great complement to our Coffee Braised Pork Carnitas or for a light lunch.
- Using a small metal “biscuit cutter” cut 4 – 5 small tortillas from each large tortilla.
- Gently rub chicken with canola oil and season with Any Day (if you plan ahead let this sit overnight).
- In a pre-heated 425 degree oven, roast for 20 minutes, rotate pan and roast for an additional 15 minutes (or until the chicken is certainly cooked).
- Remove from oven and allow to cool enough to handle.
- Once cool, remove skin and return to oven for about 15 minutes to crisp.
- Carefully pull the chicken meat away from the bones (shred) and combine with carrot and cabbage in a medium sized bowl.
- Add the orange zest and picked cilantro leaves.
- Season with a dash or 2 of Any Day.
- Serve with a spoonful of citrusy mayonnaise on small tortillas.
