1

Gather the ingredients

To make Banh Mi Tacos, you'll need the following ingredients: 1 pound of marinated protein (such as seasoned grilled chicken, pork, or tofu), 8 small soft tortillas or Banh Mi bread rolls, 1 cup of pickled veggies (such as carrots, daikon radish, and cucumbers), 1/4 cup of fresh cilantro leaves, 1/4 cup of sliced jalapenos, Sriracha sauce and mayonnaise for topping, and lime wedges for serving.

2

Prepare the Banh Mi fillings

Thinly slice the marinated protein and set aside. Drain and squeeze any excess liquid from the pickled veggies. Chop the cilantro leaves and slice the jalapenos. Set aside all the prepared fillings in separate bowls, ready for assembly.

3

Heat up the tortillas or rolls

If using small tortillas, warm them up in a dry skillet or microwave them for a few seconds until they are soft and pliable. If using Banh Mi bread rolls, lightly toast them in the oven for a crisp exterior.

4

Assemble the Banh Mi Tacos

Lay a tortilla or open a Banh Mi roll on a clean flat surface. Spread a thin layer of Sriracha sauce and mayonnaise on the tortilla or inside the roll. Place a few slices of the marinated protein on top. Add a generous amount of pickled veggies, cilantro, and jalapenos. Squeeze a lime wedge over the fillings and fold the tortilla or close the roll to enclose all the flavorful goodness. Repeat this step for each taco you want to make.

5

Serve and enjoy!

Arrange the Banh Mi Tacos on a platter or a taco holder, and serve them to your delighted guests. Encourage everyone to squeeze a little extra lime juice and top their tacos with more Sriracha sauce if they like it spicy. These tacos are meant to be enjoyed with friends, so dig in and savor the vibrant flavors!
