Cooking Instructions and Tips

1

a) If you don't have a microwave, heat your oven to 220°C/200°C fan/gas mark 7 for the tortillas.

b) Halve the bell pepper and discard the core and seeds. Slice into thin strips. 

c) Halve, peel and thinly slice the onion.

2

a) Heat a drizzle of oil in a medium frying pan on medium-high heat.

b) Once hot, add the diced chicken, bell pepper and onion.

c) Stir-fry until the chicken is golden brown 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.

3

a) While the chicken cooks, peel and grate the garlic (or use a garlic press).

b) Grate the cheese.

c) In a small bowl, mix together the mayo (see pantry for amount) and sweet chilli sauce.

4

a) Once the chicken is cooked, add the garlic and peri peri seasoning to the chicken and veg. Fry for 1 min more.

b) Season with salt and pepper.

5

a) Pile the tortillas (3 per person) onto a plate. Heat them through in the microwave, 850W: 50 secs / 750W: 1 min, until warm and soft.

b) If you're using the oven, pop them into the oven to warm through, 1-2 mins.

6

a) When everything's ready, lay the tortillas onto your serving plates.

b) To make your tacos, spread the base of each with sweet chilli mayo. Top with the baby leaf mix, peri peri chicken, pepper and onion mix.

c) Finish with your grated cheese. TIP: Tacos are best enjoyed eaten by hand - tuck in the ends of the tortilla and get stuck in!

Enjoy!
