Cooking Steps

Cook rice
1
  • Add 1 1/4 cups (2 1/2 cups) water and 1/4 tsp (1/2 tsp) salt to a medium pot. Cover and bring to a boil over high heat.
  • Once boiling, add rice, then reduce heat to low. Cover and cook until rice is tender and liquid is absorbed, 16-18 min. 
  • Remove from heat. Set aside, still covered.
Prep
2
  • Roughly chop cilantro.
  • Zest, then juice half the lime. Cut remaining lime into wedges.
  • Quarter tomatoes.
  • Cut pineapple into 1/2-inch pieces.
  • Core, then finely chop jalapeño. (TIP: We recommend using gloves when prepping jalapeño.)
Broil chicken and pineapple
3
  • Line a baking sheet with foil. 
  • Add half the pineapple to the prepared sheet. Reserve remaining pineapple for salsa.
  • Pat chicken dry with paper towels, then cut into 1-inch pieces on a separate cutting board.
  • Add chicken, Mexican Seasoning and 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) oil to the sheet with pineapple. Season with pepper, then toss to coat. 
  • Arrange in a single layer.
  • Broil in the middle of the oven until chicken is cooked through, 8-12 min.** 
Make salsa and dress cabbage
4
  • Meanwhile, add tomatoes, half the cilantro, remaining pineapple, as much jalapeno as desired, 1/2 tbsp (1 tbsp) lime juice, 1/4 tsp (1/2 tsp) sugar and 1/2 tbsp (1 tbsp) oil to a medium bowl. Season with salt and pepper, then toss to combine. 
  • To another medium bowl, add cabbage, remaining lime juice and 1/4 tsp (1/2 tsp) sugar. Season with salt and pepper, then toss to combine. 
Dress cabbage and make crema
5
  • Combine sour cream and half the lime zest in a small bowl. 
  • Just before serving, wrap tortillas in paper towels. Microwave until tortillas are warm and flexible, 30 sec-1 min. (TIP: You can skip this step if you don't want to warm the tortillas!)
Finish and serve
6
  • Fluff rice with a fork. Stir in 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) butter, remaining lime zest and remaining cilantro.
  • Divide tortillas between plates. 
  • Top tortillas with cabbage, some rice, chicken, roasted pineapple, crema and any remaining jalapeños, if desired. 
  • Serve salsa and remaining rice alongside. 
  • Squeeze a lime wedge over top, if desired.
