Instructions

Roast the Wedges
1

Preheat your oven to 200°C.
Chop the potatoes into 2cm wide wedges (no need to peel). Pop onto a large baking tray. Drizzle with oil, 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, roast on the top shelf until golden, 25-35 mins. Turn halfway through.

Get Prepped
2

Meanwhile, halve the pepper and discard the core and seeds. Chop into 2cm chunks.
Grate the cheese.
Drain and rinse the black beans in a sieve. Pop half the beans into a small bowl and roughly mash with the back of a fork or potato masher. Set aside.

Fry the Chicken
3

When the wedges have 15 mins of cooking time remaining, heat a drizzle of oil in a large frying pan on medium-high heat.
Once hot, add the chicken to the pan and season with salt and pepper. Fry until golden all over, 4-5 mins.
Add the chopped pepper and continue to cook until the pepper has softened and the chicken is cooked through, 4-5 mins. IMPORTANT: Wash your hands and equipment after handling raw chicken and its packaging. The chicken is cooked when no longer pink in the middle.

Finish the Fajita Filling
4

Stir the Mexican style spice mix into the pan and cook for 1 min more.
Add the black beans (whole and crushed) with a splash of water and cook, stirring, until everything is piping hot, 1-2 mins.

Tortilla Time
5

When the wedges are nearly done, pop the tortillas onto a baking tray and into the oven to warm through, 1-2 mins.

Assemble and Serve
6

When everything is ready, divide the tortillas between your plates (3 per person).
Spread a spoonful of mayo over each (see ingredients for amount), then top with the fajita chicken filling.
Sprinkle over the cheese to finish and serve with the wedges alongside.
Enjoy!
