Instructions

Prep
1

• Wash and dry produce. • Dice tomato into 1⁄2-inch pieces. Drain mango over a small bowl (reserving liquid). Quarter lime. • Place tomato in a separate small bowl; season with salt and pepper.

Make Slaw & Crema
2

• Combine mango, coleslaw mix, 2 tsp reserved mango juice, and juice from one lime wedge in a medium bowl (for 4 servings, use 4 tsp reserved mango juice and juice from two lime wedges). Stir, gently mashing mango, until thoroughly combined. Taste and season with salt and pepper. • In a third small bowl, combine mayonnaise and juice from one lime wedge (two wedges for 4); taste and season with salt and pepper.

Cook Chicken
3

• Open package of chicken* and drain off any excess liquid. • Heat a drizzle of oil in a medium pan over medium-high heat. Add chicken and season with salt. Cook, stirring occasionally, until browned and cooked through, 4-6 minutes. • Reduce heat to medium low; stir in jerk sauce. Cook, stirring, until chicken is evenly coated and sauce is warmed through, 30-60 seconds.

Finish & Serve
4

• Wrap tortillas in damp paper towels and microwave until warm and pliable, 30 seconds. • Divide tortillas between plates; fill with chicken, mango slaw, and tomato. Drizzle with lime crema. Serve with remaining lime wedges on the side.

Poultry is fully cooked when internal temperature reaches 165°.
