Chicken Tacos with Chorizo and Saffron Yoghurt Sauce

Prep Time: 10 Mins

Cook Time: 30 Mins

Additional Time: 10 Mins

Total Time: 50 Mins

Ingredients:

2 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves, or chicken tender pieces (1 lb)
1 C Chicken Broth
1 Onion – Chopped
2 Jalapeño Peppers – Minced
1 Lb Chorizo Sausage (I used sausages, rather than the ground meat, and it gave a nice texture)
1/2 C Plain Greek Yoghurt
Pinch of Saffron
½ tsp. Vegetable Oil
8 (6-inch) Flour Tortillas
2 Limes – Cut to Wedges

Directions:

Combine chicken, chicken broth, onion and jalapeños in a pressure cooker. Close and lock the lid. Select high pressure according to the manufacturer’s instructions; set timer for 20 minutes.

Meanwhile, heat a skillet over medium-high heat. Sauté chorizo in the pan until browned and crumbly, 5–7 minutes or if using sausages until browned on both sides and fully cooked.

Mix yogurt and saffron together in a blender or food processor until blended and the saffron starts to turn the yogurt yellow. Place yogurt in refrigerator until chicken is done.

Lightly oil a pan over medium heat. Fry tortillas until the bubbles in the flour turn brown, 3–4 minutes.

Remove chicken breasts and vegetables from pressure cooker and separate chicken with a fork, or cut.

Spoon some of the chicken and vegetable mix onto each tortilla, add chorizo, drizzle with saffron yogurt sauce and serve with lime wedges.
