Preparation
1
Season the Chicken

  • In a bowl, mix 1 tbsp oil (per 2P) with half the Mexican spice mix
  • Add the chicken to the bowl. IMPORTANT: Wash hands and equipment after handling raw chicken and its packaging.
  • Toss to coat in the spices and set aside.

TIP: Notice a stronger smell from your chicken? Don’t worry, this is normal due to packaging we use to keep it fresh.

2
Pickle the Onion

  • Halve, peel and thinly slice the onion.
  • Pop the onion into a bowl along with ¼ tsp sugar (per 2P), ¼ tsp salt (per 2P) and the red wine vinegar.
  • Set aside, continuing to stir at regular intervals.

3
Cook the Chicken

  • Drain the beans in the sieve.
  • Place a large pan over medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil.
  • Once hot, fry the chicken until cooked through, 8-10 mins.
  • When the chicken has cooked for 5 mins, add the black beans and remaining Mexican spice.
  • Cook for the remaining time, 3-5 mins. IMPORTANT: Chicken is cooked when no longer pink in the middle.

4
Prep the Veg

  • Meanwhile, drain the corn in a sieve. 
  • Chop the tomato into 1cm chunks.
  • Trim the salad leaves and roughly chop.
  • Roughly the coriander (stalks and all).
  • In a salad bowl, combine the corn, tomato, coriander, salad leaves and a drizzle of oil. Season with pepper.

5
Finishing Touches

  • Quarter the lime. 
  • In a small bowl, mix the creme fraiche with a drizzle of oil and the juice of one lime wedge (per 2P). 

6
Serve and Enjoy

  • Divide the salad between plates.
  • Spoon the beans with the chicken on top.
  • Drizzle over the creme fraiche dressing and garnish with the drained pickled onion.
  • Serve with the remaining lime wedges alongside for squeezing over.
