Cooking instructions
Instructions for 2 [for 3] [for 4] portion recipe.
Add your white long grain rice and your cauliflower rice to a pot with a lid with 110ml [175ml] [225ml] cold water and a pinch of salt 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 done, remove from the heat and set aside (lid on) to steam until serving

Boil half a kettle, then take your chicken out of the fridge, open the packet and let it air
Meanwhile, zest your lime[s] (try to grate lightly with a micro-plane or sharp box grater and avoid grating the white pith, as this is very bitter)
Peel and finely chop (or grate) your garlic

Add your chipotle paste (can't handle the heat? Go easy!) to a large bowl with a drizzle of olive oil, ground smoked paprika, ground coriander, half the lime zest (you'll use the rest later!), chopped garlic, your chicken breast strips and a generous pinch of salt, then give everything a good mix and set aside – this is your marinated chicken
Dissolve your chicken stock mix, tomato paste and a pinch of salt in 150ml [195ml] [255ml] boiled water – this is your tomato stock

Heat a large, wide-based pan (preferably non-stick with a matching lid) with a generous drizzle of olive oil over a high heat
Once hot, add the marinated chicken with 1 tsp [1 1/2 tsp] [2 tsp] flour and cook for 1 min on each side or until lightly browned
Once browned, add the tomato stock to the pan and cook, covered, for 8-10 min further or until the chicken is cooked through (no pink meat!)

Add your carrot & cabbage slaw mix to a bowl with the juice of half your lime[s], your mayo and a generous pinch of salt and pepper
Give everything a good mix up – this is your lime slaw

Finely dice your tomato[es] and cut the remaining lime[s] into wedges
Add the diced tomato to a bowl with the remaining lime zest, a squeeze of lime juice, a drizzle of olive oil and a pinch of salt and pepper
Mix it all together – this is your tomato lime salsa

Once done, transfer the cooked chicken to a clean board and shred it apart, using two forks – this technique is known as 'pulling'
Return the pulled chicken to the pan and give everything a good mix up so the chicken is evenly coated in the sauce – this is your chipotle pulled chicken

Serve the chipotle pulled chicken with the cauliflower rice, lime slaw and tomato lime salsa to the side
Garnish with a lime wedge
Enjoy!
