Crunchy Chicken Tacos with Honey Chipotle Glaze and Tangy Slaw
- 13 cups Mayonnaise
- 1 Tablespoon Whole Grain Dijon Mustard
- 2 Tablespoons White Wine Vinegar
- 2 cups Coleslaw Mix
- 2 whole Boneless, Skinless Chicken Breasts, Cubed
- 1- 1/2 cup Flour
- Salt And Pepper
- 1 whole Egg, Beaten
- 1 teaspoon Water
- 2 cups Panko Breadcrumbs
- 1/2 cans (7 Oz. Size) Chipotles In Adobo
- 1/4 cups Liquid Honey
- Coconut Oil For Frying
- Flour Tortillas, To Serve
- Cilantro For Garnish
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, Dijon, vinegar, and season with salt and pepper.
- Add the coleslaw mix and toss to coat.
- Cover and refrigerate.
- To set up your breading station, grab 3 shallow bowls.
- In the first, add the flour and season with salt and pepper.
- In the second, mix the beaten egg and water together.
- And in the third, add the panko.
- Grab a cube of chicken and toss in the flour to coat, then the egg wash, and then the panko, pressing the panko onto the chicken to coat completely.
- Place each piece onto a baking sheet lined with wax paper.
- Repeat with the rest of the pieces of chicken.
- Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes or up to 4-5 hours.
- This helps the breading stick.
- When youre ready to cook, in a small sauce pan, add the chipotles in adobo and honey.
- Warm over medium heat until glossy and quite thin, about 5-6 minutes.
- Remove the chipotles and discard, so you are just left with the sauce.
- Keep warm over low heat.
- In a large heavy bottomed pot over medium high heat, add enough coconut oil to come about 1 1/2 inches up the side of the pot; it will start melting immediately.
- Heat until a crumb dropped into the oil starts bubbling and frying without dropping to the bottom.
- Start frying the chicken in batches, until it is a deep golden brown color, about 3 minutes.
- Remove the chicken to a plate lined with paper towels to soak up any excess oil, and season thoroughly with salt.
- Repeat with more batches until all the chicken is fried.
- Warm some tortillas in the microwave for about 15 seconds.
- Grab a tortilla and add a few pieces of the chicken and drizzle with some of the warm honey chipotle glaze.
- Top with a scoop of coleslaw and some cilantro leaves.
- Enjoy!
