Instructions

2-serving instructions (4-serving modifications in red)

Wash produce before use

1

Make the mango slaw

  • Juice the lemon. [Juice 1 lemon; save the remaining lemon for another use.]
  • Cut the radishes in half, then cut the halves into thin half-moons.
  • Trim the ends from the mango; cut away the peel, then cut the flesh away from the pit into halves. Thinly slice the halves crosswise.

In a large bowl, stir together 1 tablespoon [2 TBL] lemon juice and 1 to 2 teaspoons oil. Add the radishes, mango, and cabbage and toss to coat. Season to taste with salt and pepper. 

2

Toast the buns

In a large frying pan, place the buns, cut sides down, and cook over medium-high heat until lightly toasted, 1 to 2 minutes. Alternatively, toast them in a toaster oven. Transfer to a work surface. Do not clean the pan.

3

Heat your protein

  • Set aside half the barbacoa glaze for serving.

In the same pan used for the buns, warm 1 to 2 teaspoons oil over medium-high heat until hot but not smoking. Add your protein and cook, stirring once or twice, until the meat is heated through and begins to crisp around the edges, 2 to 3 minutes. Remove from the heat and stir in up to half the barbacoa glaze to taste (see Chef’s Tip). Season to taste with salt and pepper.

Serve

Place the bun bottoms, cut sides up, on individual plates. Top with your protein and some of the mango slaw and garnish with as many jalapeños as you like. Close with the bun tops. Serve the remaining slaw and barbacoa glaze on the side.
