Instructions

Start the Prep
1

a) Preheat your oven to 220°C/200°C fan/gas mark 7.
b) Drain the sweetcorn in a sieve.
c) Peel and grate the garlic (or use a garlic press).

Make your Sweetcorn Salsa
2

a) Chop the tomatoes into 1cm pieces and pop into a large bowl.
b) Add the olive oil for the salsa (see ingredients for amount) and sweetcorn.
c) Season with salt and pepper, then mix together and set your salsa aside.

Cook the Cajun Chicken
3

a) Heat a drizzle of oil in a large frying pan on medium-high heat.
b) Once hot, add the chicken and season with salt and pepper. Fry until golden brown on the outside, 7-9 mins.
c) Stir in the Cajun spice mix and garlic, then cook for 1-2 mins more. Remove from the heat. IMPORTANT: Wash your hands and equipment after handling raw chicken and its packaging. The chicken is cooked when no longer pink in the middle.

Tortilla Time
4

a) Pop the tortillas onto a baking tray and into the oven to warm through, 1-2 mins.

Dress the Sweet Chilli Slaw
5

a) Meanwhile, combine the mayo (see ingredients for amount) and sweet chilli sauce in a medium bowl.
b) Add the coleslaw mix to the dressing and stir well to coat.
c) Taste and season with salt and pepper if needed.

Assemble your Tacos
6

a) When everything is ready, pop the tortillas (3 per person) on your plates.
b) Top with a handful of the rocket and the Cajun chicken - as much as you'd like.
c) Finish with some sweet chilli slaw and a spoonful of the sweetcorn salsa. TIP: Tacos are best enjoyed eaten by hand - get stuck in! Enjoy!
