Preparation

For the Al pastor marinade: combine the pineapple juice, vinegar, achiote paste, chili powder, cumin, garlic powder, salt, oregano, and pepper.

Toss the marinade over the chick’n strips. Marinate for 1 hour in the fridge.

Preheat grill to 400°F and preheat oven to broil. Toss pineapple rings with oil. Grill pineapple, about 2 to 3 minutes per side; until they are nice and charred. Grill the corn tortillas about 2 minutes per side.

Spray a foil lined sheet pan with cooking spray. Transfer the marinated chick’n to sheet pan, using a slotted spoon or tongs to drain any excess marinade off the chick’n. Broil for about 3 minutes, flip the chick’n if needed. Allow for the chick’n to be charred and cooked thoroughly to 165°F.

Add a couple pieces of chick’n to each tortilla. Garnish with onions, cilantro and grilled pineapple. Serve with lime wedges.
