There's no shame in reaching for a convenience product or two to make dinner. Especially when buying all of the individual items needed for a recipe would result in way more produce than two people will want to eat.
In this case a salad kit and frozen chicken strips.
For these tacos, I chopped fresh-from the oven chicken strips into bite-size pieces, sprinkled them with a blend of ancho chile powder, cumin, smoked paprika, coriander and a touch of salt and then gave them a squeeze of fresh lime juice.
To top the tacos, I opted for Dole's Slawsome Hawaiian kit, which combines red and green cabbage and carrots with "tropical seasonings" and a sweet and tangy pineapple dressing. Disclosure: We received the kit as a free sample in promotion of Dole's new salad kits and single-serve salad bowls. If you can't find these at your local supermarket, use any slaw mix you like and add a splash of pineapple juice to the dressing.
Battered fried fish would work well in place of the chicken.
