Instructions

1

Preheat your oven to 200°C. Chop the potatoes lengthways into 1cm slices, then chop into 1cm wide chips. Pop the chips 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, 25-30 mins. Turn halfway through.

2

While the chips cook, trim the baby gem and halve lengthways, then thinly slice widthways. Cut the tomato into 2cm pieces. Grate the cheese.

3

Meanwhile, put the cornflour and Central American style spice mix into a large bowl. Season with salt and pepper and mix to combine. Add the chicken to the bowl and turn them over in the spiced cornflour mix to coat well. IMPORTANT: Wash your hands and equipment after handling raw chicken and its packaging.

4

Put a large frying pan on high heat and add enough oil to completely coat the bottom of the pan. TIP: You want the oil to be hot so the chicken fries properly - heat for 2-3 mins before you add the chicken. Once hot, carefully lay the chicken into the pan, then reduce the heat to medium-high and fry until golden-brown and cooked through, 12-14 mins total. Turn every 2-3 mins and adjust the heat as necessary. Discard any cornflour left in the bowl. Once cooked, remove from the heat and place the chicken onto kitchen paper. IMPORTANT: The chicken is cooked when no longer pink in the middle.

5

When everything is nearly ready, pop the tortillas onto a baking tray and into the oven to warm through, 1-2 mins. Meanwhile, pour the red wine vinegar and olive oil (see ingredients for amount) into a bowl. Season with salt and pepper, then, add the sliced baby gem and tomatoes. Toss together. Add the mayo and chipotle paste, stir to combine (TIP: Add less if you don't like too much heat).

6

When ready, cut the chicken into strips. To assemble your wraps, lay the warmed tortillas on your plates (2 per person). Spread a spoonful of chipotle mayo on each, then top with some of the dressed salad, fried chicken strips and a sprinkle of grated cheese. Roll up the wraps, then plate up the chips and any remaining salad alongside. Enjoy!
