- 2 Medium Chicken Breasts
- 1 Cup of Honey Mustard
- ½ Cup of Honey BBQ Sauce
- 1 Drizzle of Honey
- 1 Tbs of Lemon Juice
- 2 Tsp of Chili Powder
- 1 Tsp of Black Pepper

How To Make Honey BBQ Chicken Tacos
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Boil the water in a small or medium saucepan over high heat. Once boiling, add the salsa and rice. Reduce heat to low. Cover and stir occasionally.
- While rice is cooking, prepare the chicken by trimming the fat and chopping into small cubes. Set aside.
- In a large frying pan, combine the honey mustard, BBQ sauce, honey, lemon juice, chili powder, and pepper. Stir well. Add chicken and heat frying pan over medium-high heat, stirring moderately.
- Rice is done when all of the water has been absorbed, holes appear on the surface, and rice is thick and fluffy. Remove from heat.
- Chicken is done when the sauce is very reduced and bubbly. Remove from heat.
- Sprinkle raisins and almonds over the chicken while still in pan.
- Warm tortillas in preheated oven for 3-4 minutes at the most. Tortillas should be soft and pliable, never rubbery.
How To Serve Honey BBQ Chicken Tacos
Put the rice in one bowl, the sauce-covered chicken in another, each with its own serving spoon. Put the warm tortillas onto a small plate. Cover to maintain warmth. Spread two tablespoons of rice onto a tortilla. Add two tablespoons of chicken. Top with sour cream (highly recommended). Most importantly, enjoy!
