Chicken Yassa Tacos
Chef Pierre takes a culinary detour from tradition, turning Senegal’s beloved Chicken Yassa into a must-have taco night addition. Spice-grilled chicken thighs meet two different sauces: Chef’s signature caramelized onion Yassa, and Rof, a bright blend of parsley, garlic, and lemon. It’s all topped with a refreshing mango-cabbage slaw, and wrapped into soft tortillas.
