Smoky BBQ Chicken & Beany Loaded Wedges

Meanwhile, put the water (see ingredients for amount) in a large saucepan on high heat. Add the BBQ sauce, balsamic vinegar, chipotle paste and a pinch of salt and pepper. Bring the sauce to the boil, giving it a good stir to ensure everything is combined.

Once the sauce is boiling, lower the heat to medium, stir in the chicken and cover the pan with a lid. Simmer until the chicken is cooked and tender, 15-20 mins, stirring halfway and lowering the heat if necessary. Once cooked, remove the pan from the heat and transfer just the chicken to a board with a slotted spoon. Roughly chop the chicken. IMPORTANT: Wash your hands and equipment after handling raw chicken and its packaging. The chicken is cooked when no longer pink in the middle.

While everything cooks, trim and thinly slice the spring onion. Trim and coarsely grate the carrot (no need to peel). Grate the cheese. Drain and rinse the mixed beans in a sieve (see ingredients for amount). Pop half the beans into a medium bowl and roughly mash with a fork. Once the chicken is cooked and out of your pan, add the mixed beans (both whole and crushed) and carrot to the remaining sauce in the pan.

Stir everything together, then boil vigorously on high heat until reduced to a thick sauce, 4-5 mins. TIP: Stir frequently and cook for a bit longer if you need to - you want it really thick! Stir in the chicken and simmer for 2 mins, then remove from the heat. Taste and add salt and pepper if needed.
