Cooking Steps

Bake the potato fries
1

• Preheat oven to 240°C/220°C fan-forced. 
• Cut potato into fries and place on a lined oven tray. Drizzle with olive oil, season with salt and toss to coat. Bake fries until tender, 20-25 minutes.


TIP: If your oven tray is crowded, divide fries between two trays.  


Little cooks: Help toss the fries! 

Char the pineapple
2

• Meanwhile, drain pineapple slices. 
• Finely shred baby cos lettuce.
• Heat a large frying pan over high heat. Cook pineapple slices until lightly charred, 2-3 minutes each side. 
• Transfer pineapple to a chopping board and roughly chop. 

Cook the plant-based crumbed chicken & bake pita
3
  • Heat a large frying pan over medium-high heat with enough olive oil to coat the base.
  • Cook plant-based crumbed chicken until golden and heated through, 2-3 minutes on each side.
  • Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate and sprinkle over a pinch of mild Caribbean jerk seasoning.
  • Bake pita bread directly on a wire oven rack until heated through, 2-3 minutes.
Serve up
4
  • In a large bowl, combine cos, charred pineapple, a drizzle of white wine vinegar and olive oil. Season to taste.
  • Halve pita bread and spread with coconut sweet chilli mayonnaise. Fill with some cos salad and Caribbean plant-based crumbed chicken.
  • Serve with potato fries and any remaining salad. Enjoy!

ELEVATE ME: If you’ve added extra ingredients, when fries have 5 minutes remaining, sprinkle with Cheddar cheese and bake until melted and golden. Slice lime into wedges and squeeze over the salad. Tear coriander and add to the pita.  


Little cooks: Take charge and help assemble the pita pockets!
