Description
Beer Braised Jackfruit Tacos are sweet, spicy, and smoky with big juicy jackfruit texture and crisp salty bbq style edges. All tucked into a soft corn tortilla.
Ingredients
Scale
- 2 (20)oz cans green jackfruit in brine (this is the brand we use)
- 1 (12)oz gluten-free beer
- 2 tablespoons chopped chipotle in adobo
- 1/4 cup honey OR maple syrup
- 2 cloves garlic
- 1 tablespoon chili powder
- 1 teaspoon salt
- Avocado oil
- Tortillas, lime, and avocado, for serving
Instructions
- Drain the jackfruit and add it to a bowl. Use your hands to break the jackfruit into shreds that resemble pulled pork.
- Add the remaining ingredients to a blender. Blend until smooth.
- Add the jackfruit and sauce to a large nonstick skillet. Bring the mixture to a simmer. Simmer, stirring occasionally, until the jackfruit has absorbed all of the sauce and the pan is dry, but the jackfruit is still moist.
- Grab a baking sheet and drizzle on some avocado oil. Use a paper towel to spread out the avocado oil and evenly coat the baking sheet. Transfer the jackfruit to the baking sheet and spread it out into one even layer. Bake for 20 minutes or until the edges are crispy. Enjoy!
