1
Cos Lettuce
2
Tomato
2 tin
Sweetcorn
1 sachet
Coriander
1 packet
Shredded Cheddar Cheese
(Contains: Milk; )
640 g
Chicken Thigh
2
Kumara
1 packet
Sour Cream
(Contains: Milk; )
2 sachet
Tex-Mex Spice Blend
Preheat the oven to 240°C/220°C fan-forced. In a medium bowl, combine the chicken thigh, a drizzle of olive oil, the Tex-Mex spice blend and a pinch of salt and toss well to combine. Cut the sweet potato (unpeeled) into 1cm fries.
Place the sweet potato, a drizzle of olive oil and a pinch of salt onto the oven tray lined with baking paper. Toss to coat. Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the fries are tender. Arrange the fries into small mounds on the tray, sprinkle with the shredded cheddar cheese and bake for 5 minutes until melted.
While the sweet potato fries are baking, roughly chop the cucumber. Roughly chop the tomato. Drain the sweetcorn. Roughly chop the coriander. Heat a large frying pan over a high heat. When the pan is hot, add the corn kernels and cook for 4-5 minutes, or until lightly browned. TIP: Cover the pan with a lid if the kernels are jumping out. Transfer to a medium bowl.
Return the frying pan, to a medium-high heat with a drizzle of olive oil. Once hot, add the chicken thigh and cook, turning occasionally, for 12-15 minutes, or until browned and cooked through. TIP: Don’t worry if the spice blend chars in the pan, this just adds more flavour!
In a medium bowl, combine the cucumber, tomato, charred corn and the vinegar with a drizzle of olive oil and a pinch of salt and pepper. Toss well to combine. Thickly slice the chicken.
Divide the Mexican chicken and cheesy sweet potato fries between plates. Spoon over any juices from the tray onto the chicken. Top with the charred corn salsa and a dollop of sour cream. Sprinkle the adults' portions with the coriander.
