Ingredients:

Directions:

  1. In a large mixing bowl, combine 1 jalapeno pepper, coconut milk, onion, 3 tbsp pineapple, juice, chile powder, salt and pepper. Add chicken and marinate at room temperature for up to 30 minutes, or overnight int he refrigerator (no more than 8 hours)
  2. Meanwhile, prepare salsa: in a mixing bowl, combine jalapeno, cubed pineapple, red onion and toasted coconut. Cover and refrigerate if needed. Salsa can be prepared up to 1 day in advance.
  3. Heat a grill pan on medium-high and spray oil. Remove chicken from marinade and transfer to pan. (note - the recipe discards marinade, I use it all to cook chicken in - more coconut flavour). Cook, turning once, until cooked through and marked with grill lines, about 12 minutes. Remove from pan, transfer to a cutting board and let rest for 5 minutes. Slice into thin strips and divide among tortillas. Top each with salsa, dividing evenly.
