Stir mayonnaise, adobo sauce, 1 teaspoon water, chipotle powder, garlic powder, and salt together in large bowl. Stir in coleslaw mix. Cover and refrigerate while you prepare the remaining filling.
Drain pineapple juice into a small bowl, reserve. Heat oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add chick’n strips, pepper blend, and pineapple tidbits. Cover and cook 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
To the pineapple juice add the garlic, chipotle pepper, paprika, and cumin. Stir to combine. Add mixture to the chick’n. Cook uncovered on medium-high for 8 minutes stirring occasionally.
