Cooking Steps

Get prepped
1

• Shred baby cos lettuce (see ingredients).
• Slice cucumber into thin sticks. Set aside.
• In a shallow bowl, whisk Tex-Mex spice blend and the egg. In a second shallow bowl, place panko breadcrumbs.
• Dip chicken tenderloins into egg mixture and then panko breadcrumbs. Transfer to a plate. 


Little cooks: Help crumb the chicken! Use one hand for the wet ingredients and the other for the dry ingredients to avoid sticky fingers! Make sure to wash your hands well

Cook the chicken
2

• Heat a large frying pan over medium-high heat with enough olive oil to coat the base.
• When oil is hot, cook crumbed chicken until golden and cooked through,  3-4 minutes each side. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate.   


TIP: Chicken is cooked through when it’s no longer pink inside.  
TIP: Cook in batches if your pan is getting crowded.  

Heat the tortillas
3

• When chicken is done, microwave mini flour tortillas on a microwave-safe plate in 10 second bursts, until warmed through. 


Little cooks: Help warm the tortillas with oven gloves and under adult supervision. Be careful, the plate can get hot!

Finish & serve
4

• Slice crumbed Tex-Mex chicken.
• Fill tortillas with tomato relish, lettuce and crumbed chicken slices.
• Top with cucumber and Cheddar cheese to serve. Enjoy! 


Little cooks: Take the lead and help build the tacos!

Review summary

Updated on Feb 2026
  • Flavour: Many enjoyed the taste, though some found it mild. Adding extra seasoning or spices can boost the flavour.
  • Ease of prep: Quick and simple to prepare, with some finding the chicken crumbing a bit fiddly.
  • Suggestions: Try cooking the chicken in an air fryer for a crispy result. Consider adding more veggies like tomato or onion.
  • Portions: Generous servings satisfied most, with some finding enough for 3-4 people from a two-person box.
  • Family-friendly: A reliable favourite that kids can assemble themselves, though some found it too spicy for little ones.
