Instructions

Chip, Chip, Hooray
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 chips (no need to peel).

Pop the chips onto a large baking tray. Sprinkle over half the Mexican style spice mix. 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, bake on the top shelf until golden, 25-30 mins. Turn halfway through.

Prep the Veg
2

Meanwhile, trim the baby gem, halve lengthways, then thinly slice.

Cut the tomato into 1cm chunks.

Peel and grate the garlic (or use a garlic press).

Mix Things Up
3

In a large bowl, combine the red wine vinegar, a pinch of sugar (if you have any) and a drizzle of olive oil. Season with salt and pepper, then set your salad dressing aside.

In a small bowl, combine the hot sauce and honey (see pantry for amount). Set aside.

Get Frying
4

When the chips have 15 mins remaining, heat a drizzle of oil in a large frying pan on medium-high heat.

Once hot, add the diced chicken to the pan and season with salt and pepper. TIP: Notice a stronger smell from your chicken? Don’t worry, this is normal due to packaging we use to keep it fresh.

Fry until golden brown on the outside and cooked through, 8-10 mins. IMPORTANT: Wash your hands and equipment after handling raw chicken and its packaging. It's cooked when no longer pink in the middle.

Finishing Touches
5

Once cooked, stir the garlic and remaining Mexican style spice mix into the chicken. Fry until fragrant, 1 min.

Meanwhile, pop the tortillas (2 per person) into the oven to warm through, 1-2 mins.

Add the baby gem to the bowl of dressing and toss to coat.

Serve Up
6

Share the tortillas between your plates. Spread the mayonnaise (see pantry for amount) over each tortilla.

Load with some salad, then top with the spiced chicken. Drizzle over the honey hot sauce mix, then top with the tomato - as much as you'd like.

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