BBQ Jackfruit Tacos
Method:
Break apart the chunks of jackfruit into shredded pieces using two forks.
Heat oil in a saucepan before adding the onion, garlic, and jalapeño. Cook until onion is translucent.
Add the shredded jackfruit, BBQ sauce, spices, and salt to the pan. Cook for 15-20 minutes, stirring to mix through the sauce and spices, until the jackfruit is browned and crisp around the edges. Sprinkle in the orange zest.
Whip together the creamy sriracha sauce.
Assemble the tacos with the jackfruit, lettuce, capsicum and tomato, garnishing with guacamole, fresh coriander and the creamy sriracha sauce – and enjoy!
