Ingredients

500g skinless boneless chicken thighs
1 tbsp vegetable oil
1 medium onion , chopped
2 tsp sweet smoked paprika
2 tsp ground cumin
2 tbsp cider vinegar
1 tbsp chipotle paste
200ml passata
2 tbsp soft brown sugar
½ small pineapple , cored, peeled and chopped
½ small pack coriander , chopped
corn or flour tortillas
hot sauce (I like Tabasco Chipotle), to serve

Steps:

In a food processor, roughly blitz the chicken thighs into chunky mince. Alternatively, chop into bite-sized pieces.
Heat the oil in a large saucepan. Add half the onion and the chicken mince. Season well and cook for about 5 mins on a high heat to brown, breaking up the meat with a spoon. Add the spices, vinegar, chipotle paste, passata and sugar. Cook for another 5 mins, then remove from the heat.
In a small bowl, mix the remaining onion, the pineapple and coriander. Serve the chicken and the pineapple salsa with warm tortillas and hot sauce.
