Cooking instructions

Instructions for 2 [for 3] [for 4] portion recipe.

1.

Before you begin...

Get all your ingredients and equipment ready

Skim through these steps, then wash your fruit and veg

Take your chicken out of the fridge, open the packet and let it air

Note: Equipment and pan sizes vary. Make sure you cook food thoroughly (even if it takes you a little longer than 10 min)

Step 1
2.

Now, let's get started!

Heat a large, wide-based pan (preferably non-stick) with a generous drizzle of olive oil over a high heat

Step 2
3.

Once the pan is hot, add your chicken strips and pour over your soy sauce

Sprinkle your ground smoked paprika and ground allspice into the pan and cook for 10-12 min or until cooked through (no pink meat!) – this is your blackened chicken

(Doubled your protein? Use 2 pans!)

Step 3
4.

While the chicken is cooking, drain and roughly chop your pineapple

Tip: Don't chuck pineapple juice down the drain. Instead, add it to your smoothies, cakes or marinades!

Peel, then slice your shallot[s] finely

Chop your coriander roughly, including the stalks

Wash your lettuce, then pat it dry with kitchen paper and shred roughly

Step 4
5.

Add the chopped pineapple, sliced shallot and chopped coriander to a bowl and gently mix it all together – this is your speedy pineapple salsa

Step 5
6.

Add your tortillas to a plate and pop them in the microwave for 20 secs on high or until warmed

Step 6
7.

While the tortillas are in the microwave, combine your chipotle paste (can't handle the heat? Go easy!) with your mayo, a drizzle of olive oil and 1 tsp [1 1/2 tsp] [2 tsp] cold water in a bowl – this is your chipotle mayo

Step 7
8.

Load up the warmed tortillas with the blackened chicken, speedy pineapple salsa and shredded lettuce

Dollop over the chipotle mayo

Enjoy!
