Cooking instructions
Instructions for 2 [for 3] [for 4] portion recipe.
Before you start cooking, take your chicken out of the fridge, open the packet and let it air
Combine your diced chicken thigh in a bowl with your ground smoked paprika, ground cumin, cayenne pepper (can't handle the heat? Go easy!) and a pinch of salt – this is your coated chicken
Boil half a kettle
Heat a large, wide-based pan (preferably non-stick) with a drizzle of vegetable oil over a high heat
Once hot, add the coated chicken to the pan and cook for 10-12 min or until cooked through (no pink meat!)
Whilst the chicken is cooking, cut your lime[s] in half
Wash your lettuce, then pat it dry with kitchen paper and shred finely
Dissolve your tomato paste and soy sauce in 75ml [110ml] [150ml] boiled water – this is your tomato stock
Drain and rinse your black beans
Once the chicken is cooked, add the tomato stock to the pan and cook for a further 1-2 min or until the sauce has thickened – this is your chicken tinga
Squeeze your pouch[es] of cooked long grain rice to separate the grains
Tear the top corner of the pouch[es] (just a little!) and microwave for 2 min or until piping hot
Tip: If you're cooking two or more pouches, pop them in together but increase the microwave cook time accordingly
Meanwhile, combine your mayo with the juice of half your lime[s] in a small bowl – this is your lime mayo
Cut the remaining lime into 1 wedge per person
Grate your cheddar cheese
Once the rice is cooked, combine the cooked rice with the drained black beans and season with a pinch of salt – this is your beany rice
Serve the beany rice in a bowl with the chicken tinga, shredded lettuce and grated cheese to the side
Drizzle over the lime mayo and garnish with a lime wedge
Enjoy!
