Cooking Steps

Pickle the cucumber
1

• Thinly slice cucumber into half-moons.
• Thinly slice pear into wedges.
• Place your hand flat on top of chicken breast and slice through horizontally to make two thin steaks. Season with salt and pepper.
• In a medium bowl, combine the vinegar and a good pinch of sugar and salt. • Add cucumber to pickling liquid. Add enough water to just cover cucumber. Set aside.

TIP: Slicing the cucumber very thinly helps it pickle faster!

Cook the chicken
2

• In a large frying pan, heat a drizzle of olive oil over medium-high heat. • Cook chicken in batches until cooked through, 3-5 minutes each side. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate.

TIP: Chicken is cooked through when it's no longer pink inside.

Prep the slaw & tortillas
3

• Meanwhile, in a second medium bowl, combine pear, slaw mix, plant-based mayonnaise, a splash of pickling liquid and a drizzle of olive oil. Toss to coat. Season to taste. 
• Microwave mini flour tortillas on a microwave-safe plate in 10 second bursts, until warmed through.

Finish & serve
4

• Drain pickled cucumber. Slice chicken.
• Build your tacos by filling each tortilla with a helping of creamy slaw, pickled cucumber and chicken.
• Top with plant-based kimchi. Sprinkle with crispy shallots to serve. Enjoy!
