Cooking Instructions and Tips

Eyes on the Fries
1

Preheat your oven to 220°C/200°C fan/gas mark 7.

Chop the potatoes lengthways into 1cm slices, then chop into 1cm wide fries (no need to peel).

Pop the fries onto a large baking tray. Drizzle with oil, sprinkle over the sesame seeds, season with salt and pepper, then toss to coat. Spread out in a single layer. TIP: Use two baking trays if necessary.

When the oven is hot, bake on the top shelf until golden, 25-30 mins. Turn halfway through.

Roast the Chicken
2

Meanwhile, remove the chicken from the packaging and place in a medium ovenproof dish, discarding the juices. Season with salt and pepper.

Roast on the middle shelf of your oven for 20-25 mins. IMPORTANT: Ensure the chicken is piping hot throughout.

Prep Time
3

Meanwhile, grate the Cheddar cheese.

In a medium bowl, combine the mayo and sambal paste (add less if you'd prefer things milder). Season with salt and pepper.

Trim the baby gem, halve lengthways, then thinly slice.

Warm the Tortillas
4

Just before everything's ready, pop the tortillas (3 per person) onto a large baking tray and into the oven to warm through, 1-2 mins.

Toss the baby gem and coleslaw mix into the sambal-mayo dressing. 

Get the Gochujang
5

Once the chicken is cooked, remove from the oven, then use two forks to gently break apart the chicken. 

Stir the gochujang and sweet chilli sauce into the pulled chicken. Season with salt and pepper.

Assemble and Serve
6

When everything's ready, lay the tortillas on your plates. Top with some sambal mayo salad and pulled chicken, then finish by sprinkling over the cheese - as much as you'd like.

Serve the sesame fries and any remaining salad alongside. TIP: Tacos are best enjoyed eaten by hand - get stuck in!

Enjoy!
