Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 15-ounce cans Canned young green jackfruit
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 medium Yellow onion, diced
- 3 cloves Garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon Smoked paprika
- 1 teaspoon Ground cumin
- 1 teaspoon Chili powder
- 1 cup BBQ sauce
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 4 large Whole wheat wraps
- 1 cup Coleslaw mix
- 0.25 cup, chopped Fresh cilantro
- 4 pieces Lime wedges
Instructions
Drain and rinse the jackfruit. Use your hands or a fork to pull apart the jackfruit pieces into smaller shreds, resembling pulled pork.
In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the diced onion and minced garlic, and sauté until the onion is translucent, about 5 minutes.
Add the jackfruit to the skillet along with the smoked paprika, ground cumin, chili powder, salt, and black pepper. Stir to coat the jackfruit with the spices.
Pour in the BBQ sauce and stir well. Cover and let the jackfruit simmer for 15-20 minutes, stirring occasionally, until it is tender and imbued with flavor.
While the jackfruit is cooking, lightly warm the whole wheat wraps on a separate skillet over low heat or in a microwave for about 10 seconds.
Once the jackfruit is done, assemble the wraps by placing a portion of the jackfruit mixture onto each wrap. Top with coleslaw mix and fresh cilantro.
Roll up the wraps tightly, serve with lime wedges on the side, and squeeze fresh lime juice over each wrap before enjoying.
