Hey Reader!

Sometimes you want something crunchy. Sometimes you want something juicy.
And sometimes, you want both—in a taco—with creamy sauce, crispy slaw, and no deep-frying in sight.

Let me introduce you to your new favorite taco:​
​Air Fryer Chicken and Pork Belly Tacos—aka the ones that taste gourmet but take less than an hour from start to finish.

We’re talking crispy pork belly bites, juicy air-fried chicken, cool kale slaw, and a thick, zesty spoonful of Cholula Green Chili Sour Cream Sauce (yes, it’s chunky and fabulous). Serve it all in toasted corn tortillas and you've got a texture-lover’s dream. Crunchy, creamy, spicy, savory—it’s all in there.

🟢 What You’ll Love About This Recipe:

• The air fryer does all the hard work
• It satisfies both your “crispy” and “tender” cravings
• Perfect for taco night, casual dinner parties, or “treat yourself” Tuesdays
• The kind of taco that makes people go: “You made this?!”

And just a heads-up—these are the kinds of tacos you’ll want to eat standing over the counter while saying “okay just one more” at least three times. I’ve tested it thoroughly. 😏

Stay crunchy,
​Chef Maika

P.S. Got leftover pork belly? I included tips for how to use it. Spoiler: tacos win again.
