Ingredients

  • 1 onion, diced
  • 1 tablespoon minced garlic
  • 2 20 ounce cans green jackfruit in water or brine
  • 1 tablespoon chili powder
  • 1 tablespoon cumin
  • 1 tablespoon smoked paprika
  • 2 tablespoons tomato paste
  • 2 limes, juiced
  • 1/2 cup water or vegetable broth
  • 12 whole grain corn tortillas

Topping Ideas

  • shredded cabbage
  • chopped cilantro
  • chopped red onions
  • avocado
  • salsa
  • chopped green onions

Instructions

  • Rinse and drain the jackfruit. Set on a cutting board and shred with your hands. Chop the harder pieces with a knife.
  • Add chopped onion & minced garlic to a large pan over medium heat and broth saute for about 5 minutes until soft. Add the jackfruit, spices, tomato paste, lime juice, and water/broth and stir to combine. Continue cooking for 5-7 minutes until most of the liquid is absorbed. If too dry, add more water or broth.
  • Wrap tortillas in a paper towel and heat in microwave for 20-30 seconds to warm. This will help them be softer so they don't crack at the bottom.
  • Assemble tacos by filling with the jackfruit and your favorite toppings!
