Cooking Steps

Get prepped
1

• Slice chicken tenderloins into thin strips. • In a medium bowl, combine All-American spice blend, a drizzle of olive oil and a pinch of salt. Add chicken strips, tossing to coat. Set aside. • In a small bowl, combine sriracha, BBQ sauce and a splash of water. • Thinly slice apple and cucumber into sticks. TIP: Use less sriracha if you’re sensitive to heat!

Cook the chicken
2

• Set air fryer to 200°C. Place chicken into a foil-lined air fryer basket and cook, until browned and cooked through (when no longer pink inside), 8-10 minutes. Cook in batches if needed. • When chicken has 5 minutes remaining, brush over Buffalo sauce mixture and cook, until glaze is sticky. TIP: No air fryer? Cook chicken in a large frying pan with a drizzle of olive oil over medium-high heat, until cooked through, 3-4 minutes each side. Remove pan from heat and add buffalo sauce mixture, tossing until well coated.

Assemble the slaw
3

• In a large frying pan, heat a drizzle of olive oil over medium-high heat. • Cook diced bacon, breaking up with a spoon, until golden, 4-6 minutes. Transfer to a bowl. • Microwave mini flour tortillas on a microwave-safe plate in 10 second bursts until warmed through. • In a large bowl, combine shredded cabbage mix, apple, garlic aioli and a drizzle of white wine vinegar. Season to taste with salt and pepper.

Finish & serve
4

• Build tacos by filling tortillas with apple slaw, cucumber, Buffalo glazed chicken and bacon. • Drizzle over any remaining sauce from pan to serve. Enjoy!
