Cooking instructions
Instructions for 2 [for 3] [for 4] portion recipe.
Preheat the oven to 200°C/ 180°C (fan)/ gas 6, then take your chicken out of the fridge, open the packet and let it air
Add your sweetcorn cobettes to a large piece of tin foil and top with a large knob of butter
Scrunch the foil around the corn until tightly sealed and add to a baking tray (or two!)
Put the tray[s] in the oven for 20-25 min or until the corn is tender

Add your chicken breast portions to a bowl with your chipotle paste, half your cayenne pepper (can't handle the heat? Go easy!), ground cumin, ground smoked paprika, 1 tbsp [1 1/2 tbsp] [2 tbsp] olive oil and a generous pinch of salt and pepper – this is your marinated chicken
Give everything a good mix up, then set aside

Whilst the chicken is marinating, chop your coriander roughly, including the stalks, then peel and chop the garlic roughly
Add the chopped coriander and chopped garlic to a food processor with a pinch of salt and 50ml [75ml] [100ml] cold water
Blitz until you're left with a green liquid – this is your coriander paste
Tip: No food processor? Chop everything up as finely as you can and mix it together!

Heat a pot with a lid with a knob of butter over a medium heat
Once melted, add your white long grain rice with a generous pinch of salt and cook for 1-2 min or until toasted
Tip: Watch it like a hawk to make sure it doesn't burn!

Once toasted, add the coriander paste with 225ml [300ml] [450ml] cold water to the rice and bring to the boil over a high heat
Once boiling, reduce the heat to very low and cook, covered, for 12-15 min or until all the water has absorbed and the rice is cooked
Once cooked, remove from the heat and keep covered until serving – this is your green rice

Whilst the rice is cooking, heat a large, wide-based pan (preferably non-stick) with a drizzle of olive oil over a medium-high heat
Once hot, add the marinated chicken and cook for 8-9 min on each side or until cooked through and slightly charred (no pink meat!) – this is your chipotle chicken

Whilst the chicken is cooking, trim, then slice your spring onion[s] finely
Once the corn is tender, spread your mayo around each cobette with the back of a spoon
Crumble your feta over the corn and add a pinch of the remaining cayenne pepper (not a fan of spice? Just add a little!) – this is your elote corn
Cut your lime[s] into wedges

Serve the chipotle chicken with the green rice and elote corn to the side
Squeeze the juice of a lime wedge over the green rice
Garnish with the sliced spring onion and a lime wedge
Enjoy!
