Ingredients

Ingredients

  • 4 Corn Tortillas or Gluten-Free Tortillas for a gluten-free option
  • 1 Cup Grilled Chicken thinly sliced or Tofu for a vegetarian version
  • 1 Cup Fresh Kimchi chopped
  • 2 Tablespoons Sriracha Mayo just mix mayo with a little Sriracha
  • 1/4 Cup Chopped Cilantro
  • 1 Lime cut into wedges

Instructions

Instructions

  • Step 1: Prep Your Ingredients
  • Heat your tortillas on a dry pan for about a minute on each side until they get a little crispy. Not too crispy, just a light crunch!
  • Chop up your kimchi into bite-sized pieces. Trust me, this makes it way easier to eat!
  • Slice the grilled chicken or tofu into thin strips. Make sure they’re bite-sized too, so you don’t end up pulling half of it out on the first bite!
  • Step 2: Assemble the Tacos
  • Lay your tortillas flat and start by placing a layer of grilled chicken (or tofu) on each one. Don’t overload it—just enough for every bite to have some!
  • Add a scoop of chopped kimchi on top of the chicken. This is where the spicy, tangy magic happens.
  • Drizzle some Sriracha mayo over the top. It’s not just for looks—it adds a creamy, spicy kick that brings everything together.
  • Step 3: Garnish and Serve
  • Sprinkle some chopped cilantro on each taco for that fresh, herby vibe.
  • Squeeze a little lime juice over the top right before serving. It brightens up the flavors and adds a zesty punch.

Notes

Tips for Success

  • Adjust the spice level by adding more or less Sriracha to your mayo.
  • Want a healthier twist? Swap tortillas for lettuce wraps to make these even lighter and low-carb.
  • Don’t be afraid to experiment with different proteins. Grilled shrimp or beef works great, too!
