Here, Japanese flavors meet Mexican influences and the result is absolutely delicious. Chef Akhtar braises tender chicken in a sweet and savory teriyaki sauce, then pairs the chicken with a tangy pineapple sauce and melty mozzarella cheese. Tuck all the elements into soft corn tortillas and top with crunchy Asian-inspired coleslaw to create the most flavor-packed tacos you've ever tasted. Chef Akhtar is a master of flavor fusion, and this dish proves it.
