Cooking instructions
Instructions for 2 [for 3] [for 4] portion recipe.
Preheat the oven to 220°C/ 200°C (fan)/ gas 7, then boil half a kettle and take your chicken out of the fridge and open the packet to let it air
Add your ground cumin, ground smoked paprika and chilli flakes (can't handle the heat? Go easy!) to a plate with a generous pinch of salt and pepper and mix until combined
Add your chicken breast portion[s] to the plate and turn them several times until evenly coated in all the spices
Heat a large, wide-based pan (preferably non-stick) with a generous drizzle of vegetable oil over a high heat
Once hot, add the coated chicken and any remaining spices and cook for 3 min on each side until browned
Meanwhile, dissolve your chicken stock mix and tomato paste in 200ml [260ml] [340ml] boiled water – this is your tomato stock
Drain and rinse your kidney beans
Strip your coriander leaves from their stalks and set aside for garnish (discard the stalks)
Add the drained kidney beans, tomato stock and browned chicken to an oven-proof dish and put the dish in the oven for 25-35 min or until the chicken is cooked through (no pink meat!)
Once the chicken is cooked, fold your tortillas in half and add them to a baking tray (or two!)
Put the tray[s] in the oven for 3-4 min or until warmed through
Transfer the cooked chicken to a clean board and shred apart, using two forks – this technique is known as 'pulling'
Return the shredded chicken to the dish and give everything a good mix up – this is your shredded chicken breast chilli
Serve the shredded chicken breast chilli with the warmed tortillas
Dollop with your natural yoghurt, grate your cheddar cheese all over and garnish with the coriander leaves
Enjoy!
