Instructions

Cook the Wedges
1

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

Chop the potatoes into 2cm wide wedges (no need to peel). Pop them onto a large baking tray. Drizzle with oil, sprinkle over the oregano, 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, 30-40 mins. Turn halfway through.

Get Prepped
2

Meanwhile, halve the bell pepper and discard the core and seeds. Slice into thin strips. 

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

Grate the Cheddar cheese.

Cut each chicken thigh into 2cm chunks. TIP: Notice a stronger smell from your chicken? Don’t worry, this is normal due to packaging we use to keep it fresh. IMPORTANT: Wash your hands and equipment after handling raw chicken and its packaging.

Fry the Chicken
3

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

Once hot, add the diced chicken and season with salt and pepper.

Fry until golden brown on the outside and cooked through, 8-10 mins. IMPORTANT: The chicken is cooked when no longer pink in the middle.

Add the Veg and Spice
4

Once the chicken is cooked, add the sliced pepper to the pan and stir-fry until just soft, 4-5 mins. 

Reduce the heat to medium, then add the garlic, tomato puree and Central American style spice mix. Cook until fragrant, 1 min.

Finishing Touches
5

Stir in the chicken stock paste, honey and water for the sauce (see pantry for amount). Simmer until thickened, 3-4 mins.

Taste the fajita mix and season with salt and pepper if needed. Add a splash of water if it's a little too dry.

Load and Serve
6

When everything's ready, share the wedges between your plates and top with the chicken fajita mix.

Build your own! Bring everything to the table and everyone can add the toppings they like best.

Sprinkle over the cheese. Finish with a dollop of soured cream and smashed avocado - wedges loaded!
