Tips & Tricks (5)
- Marinade Magic 🍖Marinate the chicken in barbecue sauce for at least 30 minutes before cooking to maximize flavor penetration and tenderize the meat.
- Crispy Tortilla Technique 🌮Lightly brush flour tortillas with olive oil and warm them in the oven for 2-3 minutes before assembling to create a slight crisp and enhance texture.
- Cabbage Slaw Perfection 🥬Massage the shredded cabbage with rice vinegar and a pinch of salt 10 minutes before serving to soften the texture and brighten the flavor.
- Even Chicken Distribution 🔪Cut chicken breasts into uniform 1-inch pieces to ensure even cooking and consistent barbecue sauce coverage on the sheet pan.
- Cheese Melting Hack 🧀Sprinkle shredded cheddar cheese during the last 2-3 minutes of cooking to create perfectly melted, golden-brown cheese without overcooking.
