Bulgogi Chicken Tacos
with Pickled Cucumbers and Sriracha Crema
Korean and Mexican flavors may seem like they’re at opposite ends of the culinary spectrum. But when they meet in the middle, the results are absolutely delicious. These mashup tacos feature chicken in bulgogi sauce—a Korean-style marinade of soy sauce and sesame with a little bit of sweetness. When you tuck that into tortillas with cabbage, pickled cucumber, and a spicy crema, it feels like a border-hopping celebration in your mouth.
Produced in a facility that processes eggs, milk, fish, peanuts, sesame, shellfish, soy, tree nuts, and wheat.

Instructions
Wash and dry all produce. Halve cucumber lengthwise, then slice crosswise into thin half-moons. Toss cucumber with 4 tsp vinegar (we sent more) and ½ tsp sugar in a small bowl. Season with salt and pepper and set aside. Pat chicken dry with a paper towel.
Heat a drizzle of oil in a large pan over medium-high heat. Add cabbage. Season with salt and pepper. Cook, tossing occasionally, until softened, 3-4 minutes. Remove pan from heat and stir in remaining vinegar. Transfer contents of pan to a medium bowl.
Heat a large drizzle of oil in same pan over medium-high heat. Season chicken with salt and pepper, then add to pan. Cook, tossing occasionally, until browned and cooked through, 3-5 minutes.
Reduce heat under pan to medium, then pour in bulgogi sauce. Bring to a simmer and let bubble until sauce has reduced slightly, about 2 minutes, while tossing chicken to coat. Stir in cabbage mixture, then remove pan from heat.
In another small bowl, stir together sour cream, 1 tsp water, and sriracha to taste. (TIP: Add more water as needed to achieve a drizzling consistency.) Wrap tortillas in a damp paper towel and microwave on high until warm, about 30 seconds.
Divide chicken and cabbage mixture between tortillas, then top with cucumber. Drizzle crema over each taco.
