Steps:
- Remove the skin from the chicken and set the skin aside. Slice the chicken into strips. Toss in a bowl with the paprika, ground coriander, 2 tbsp of the olive oil and a good pinch of salt. Cover and leave to marinate for at least 1 hr or up to 24 hrs.
- For the salsa, cut the pineapple down the length, cut out the core, then cut the flesh into small cubes. Toss in a bowl with the red onion, chilli, coriander and lime juice.
- Heat the remaining oil in a non-stick frying pan. Season the chicken skin with salt and fry over a high heat for 3-5 mins on each side until golden brown and crisp. Set aside on a plate lined with kitchen paper. Tip the marinated chicken into the pan and fry over medium-high heat for 10-12 mins, turning halfway through.
- Mix the mayo, soured cream and chipotle paste together in a bowl. Mash the avocado with the lime juice and some seasoning in another bowl.
- Heat the oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4 and warm the tortillas on a baking tray for 5-7 mins, or in a microwave for 1-2 mins. Let everyone fill their own with the spicy soured cream, avocado, chicken, salsa and crumbled chicken skin.

PINEAPPLE THRONE CHICKEN TACOS
We channeled the flavors of al pastor in our seasonings for this chicken that roast standing upright on the core of a pineapple--you get even cooking all around and the spices play to the sweet juicy fruit's taste. The trickiest part of this dish is making sure you cut the pineapple base flat, so the chicken doesn't tip over once it begins to cook. If it does, you can prop the bird up on the grill with a brick or other heatproof anchor.

Steps:
- For the chicken: Combine the chile powder, cumin, oregano, garlic powder, cloves and 1 teaspoon salt in a small bowl. Rub all over the outside of the chicken and sprinkle a little in the cavity. Let sit at room temperature 1 hour or refrigerate up to overnight.
- When you are ready to cook, prepare a grill for medium (350 to 375 degrees F) indirect heat (for a gas grill, leave one or two burners on low or off; for a charcoal grill, bank the coals on one side of the grill). Fold a double thickness of aluminum foil to about 10 inches square and place in the center of the indirect heat (or use a disposable aluminum pan).
- Cut the top from the pineapple and cut a small slice from the bottom, if needed, so the pineapple stands up firmly on its own. Use a serrated knife to cut down vertically, along the core to make a plank, stopping a little more than an inch from the base of the pineapple. Cut horizontally above the base to remove 1 plank of pineapple. Remove 3 more planks in the same manner--ending up with a firm base holding up the pineapple core. Cut the flesh from the pineapple. Coarsely chop 1 cup and set aside for the sauce. Cube the remaining pineapple for salsa, about 1 1/2 cups, and set aside.
- Stuff the pineapple core in the cavity of the chicken to make it stand up straight. Place on the foil on the grill and cover the grill. Cook the chicken for 1 hour.
- For the sauce: Meanwhile, melt the achiote paste in a small skillet over low heat, adding 1 to 2 tablespoons water if it is too thick to melt (different brands have different textures). Once melted, add the garlic and cook until sizzling, about 1 minute. Stir in the cumin, oregano, cloves and 1/2 teaspoon salt and remove from the heat. Transfer to a blender with the reserved 1 cup chopped pineapple, vinegar and agave. Blend to make a smooth sauce about the consistency of BBQ sauce. Season with salt. You will have about 1 1/2 cups. Divide the sauce between 2 bowls, reserving one bowl for basting and one for serving.
- After 1 hour, brush the chicken with some of the basting sauce and re-cover the grill. Continue to cook, basting every 10 minutes, until the skin is deep golden brown and the chicken is cooked through and tender (an instant-read thermometer should read 165 degrees F in the thickest part of the thigh), 30 to 40 minutes more. Remove the chicken to a cutting board to rest for 10 minutes and remove the pineapple core.
- For the salsa: While the chicken rests, toss the reserved 1 1/2 cups pineapple cubes in a medium bowl with the lime juice, oil, plum tomato, jalapeno, red onion and 1 teaspoon salt. Toss well. Add the cilantro and toss just to combine.
- Cut the chicken into pieces, then carve the meat from the bones and chop into bite-size pieces. Serve with the salsa, cabbage, avocado, lime wedges and tortillas on the side. Drizzle the tacos with the reserved pineapple sauce.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
- Add the vegetable oil to a large skillet set over medium-high heat. Add the chicken, season with a pinch of salt and pepper and cook, turning halfway through, 2 to 3 minutes. Add the scallions and garlic and continue to cook for another minute.
- In a liquid measuring cup, whisk together the pineapple juice, hot sauce and honey. Add the liquid to the skillet, bring to a simmer and cook for 5 to 7 minutes.
- Meanwhile, shingle the tortillas on a baking sheet and warm them in the oven for 5 minutes.
- Put the broccoli slaw in a large bowl. In a separate bowl, mix the mayo, chipotle sauce, lime zest and half of the lime juice. Add the dressing to the slaw and toss. Taste and adjust the seasoning with salt, pepper and additional lime juice if needed.
- Remove the chicken to a cutting board. Lower the heat under the skillet and continue to reduce the remaining juices to a syrup consistency. Slice the chicken.
- To build the tacos, place the tortillas flat on a plate, add the sliced chicken down the middle and spoon on some of the reduced sauce from the skillet. Top with the pineapple, slaw and cilantro. Serve alongside chips and salsa.

Steps:
- Combine tomatoes, 1/2 cup diced red onion, pineapple, and cilantro in a medium bowl. Add 1 tablespoon lime juice, salt, and sugar; toss to combine. Cover salsa with plastic wrap and place in the fridge for at least 2 hours.
- Place the remaining red onion in the bowl of a small food processor. Add juice of one lime and process until finely ground, about 3 minutes.
- Place chicken strips into a shallow dish. Slather onion mixture over the chicken, and refrigerate for at least 2 hours.
- Preheat an outdoor grill to high heat, about 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Lightly oil the grill.
- Cook until chicken is no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, 3 to 4 minutes per side. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C). Remove to a plate.
- Lightly brown the tortillas on the grill for 30 seconds to 1 minute. Drain the salsa.
- Thinly slice the chicken, against the grain. Lay tortillas out on plates, top with lettuce, chicken, pineapple salsa, and Sriracha sauce.
