Description

Sweet, savory, and packed with flavor, these Garlic Butter Honey BBQ Chicken Tacos are the perfect combination of juicy chicken, rich butter, and tangy BBQ sauce, all wrapped in a soft tortilla. Quick, easy, and delicious!


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 lb chicken breast, diced
  • 2 tbsp butter
  • 2 garlic cloves, minced
  • 2 tbsp honey
  • 1/4 cup BBQ sauce
  • Tortillas and toppings of choice (e.g., shredded lettuce, cheese, sour cream, etc.)


Instructions

  • Sauté the diced chicken in butter and minced garlic over medium heat until the chicken is fully cooked (about 7-8 minutes).
  • Stir in honey and BBQ sauce, and let it cook for an additional 2-3 minutes to allow the flavors to combine.
  • Serve the mixture in tortillas and top with your favorite toppings.

Notes

  • You can substitute chicken thighs for chicken breasts for a juicier, richer flavor.
  • Feel free to add some coleslaw or pickled onions for extra crunch and tanginess.
  • Adjust the amount of BBQ sauce and honey based on your preference for sweetness and tang.
