Cooking Steps

Pickle
1

Thinly slice the red onion (see ingredients). In a small bowl, combine the rice wine vinegar, water and a good pinch of sugar and salt. Scrunch the onion in your hands, then add it to the pickling liquid. Stir to coat and set aside until serving.

Prep
2

Finely chop the garlic. Grate the carrot (unpeeled) and zucchini. Cut the chicken thigh into 2cm chunks. In a medium bowl, combine the Tex-Mex spice blend with a drizzle of olive oil. Add the chicken and toss to coat.

Make filling
3

In a large frying pan, heat a drizzle of olive oil over a medium-high heat. When the oil is hot, cook the chicken, stirring, until browned, 5-6 minutes. Add the carrot and zucchini and cook, stirring, until just softened, 2-3 minutes. Add the garlic and cook, stirring, until fragrant, 1 minute. Add 1/2 the enchilada sauce and cook, stirring, until just heated through, 1 minute. Remove from the heat. Season to taste.

Grill
4

Preheat the grill to medium-high. Lay the mini flour tortillas on the chopping board. Line the base of a baking dish with baking paper. Spoon the chicken mixture down the centre of the tortilla, roll the tortilla up tightly and place, seam-side down, in the baking dish. Repeat this process until all the chicken mixture has been used. Ensure the tortillas fit snugly together in the baking dish. Spoon the remaining enchilada sauce over the tortillas and sprinkle with the shredded Cheddar cheese. Grill the enchiladas until the cheese is melted and golden, 5-8 minutes.

Dress
5

While the enchiladas are grilling, roughly chop the coriander. In a large bowl, combine onion pickling liquid (1 tsp for 2 people / 2 tsp for 4 people), a drizzle of olive oil and a pinch of salt and pepper. Add the mixed salad leaves and toss well to combine.

serve
6

Drain the remaining liquid from the pickled onion. Divide the chicken enchiladas between plates and top with Greek yoghurt and pickled onion. Sprinkle with the coriander and serve the mixed salad on the side.
