Instructions
• Boil the kettle. Half-fill a medium saucepan with boiling water. • Cook basmati rice in boiling water, uncovered, over a high heat until tender, 12 minutes. • Drain rice and return to the saucepan. Add baby spinach leaves, chicken-style stock powder and 1/2 the butter and stir to combine. • Meanwhile, place your hand flat on top of chicken and slice through horizontally to make two thin steaks. Combine Tex-Mex spice blend and a drizzle of olive oil in a large bowl. Add chicken and turn to coat.
• In a large frying pan, heat a drizzle of olive oil over a medium-high heat. Cook chicken until cooked through, 3-5 minutes each side (cook in batches if your pan is getting crowded). • Remove pan from heat, then add enchilada sauce (see ingredients), a pinch of brown sugar, a splash of water and remaining butter. Stir to combine, then toss chicken to coat.
• Meanwhile, roughly chop tomato. Slice avocado in half, scoop out flesh and roughly chop. • In a small bowl, combine tomato, avocado, a pinch of salt and a drizzle of white wine vinegar and olive oil.
• Slice Tex-Mex chicken. • Divide spinach rice between bowls. Top with chicken and any remaining sauce from the pan. • Tear over coriander. Serve with avocado salsa and mayonnaise.
