Cooking Steps

Cook the garlic rice
1

• Finely chop garlic. 
• In a medium saucepan, heat the butter with a 
dash of olive oil over medium heat.
• Cook garlic until fragrant, 1-2 minutes. Add 
basmati rice, the water and a generous pinch of 
salt, stir, then bring to the boil.
• Reduce heat to low and cover with a lid.
• Cook for 10 minutes, then remove from heat 
and keep covered until rice is tender and water 
is absorbed, 10 minutes.


TIP: The rice will finish cooking in its own steam so 
don’t peek!

Get prepped
2

• Meanwhile, thinly slice capsicum and red onion.
• Drain sweetcorn. 
• Finely chop tomato. 
• Tear coriander.
• Cut chicken thigh into 2cm strips.
• SPICY! This is a mild spice blend, but use less 
if you’re sensitive to heat! In a medium bowl, 
combine Tex-Mex spice blend, a pinch of salt
and pepper and a drizzle of olive oil. Add 
chicken and toss to coat. 


Little cooks: Take charge by draining the corn!

Cook the veggies
3

• In a large frying pan, heat a drizzle of olive 
oil over medium-high heat. Cook capsicum, 
tossing, until tender, 4-5 minutes. Transfer to a 
bowl and cover to keep warm.
• Return the frying pan to medium-high heat with 
a drizzle of olive oil. Cook onion, tossing, until 
tender, 4-5 minutes. Transfer to a second bowl 
and cover to keep warm.
• Return the frying pan to high heat. Cook corn
kernels until lightly browned, 4-5 minutes. 
Transfer to a third bowl and cover to keep warm.


TIP: Cover the pan with a lid if the kernels are 
“popping” out.

Cook the chicken
4

• Return the frying pan to medium-high heat with 
a drizzle of olive oil.
• When oil is hot, cook chicken, tossing, until 
browned and cooked through, 5-6 minutes.


TIP: Chicken is cooked through when it’s no longer 
pink inside. 

Season the tomato
5

• In a small bowl, combine tomato and a drizzle of 
white wine vinegar and olive oil. Season with 
salt and pepper to taste.

Finish & serve
6

• Bring everything to the table.
• To serve, build your own fajita bowl with garlic 
rice, chicken, capsicum, onion, corn, tomato, 
coriander and light sour cream. Enjoy!


Little cooks: Add the finishing touch by dolloping 
over the sour cream!
If you’ve added mini flour tortillas: Warm in the 
microwave in 10 second bursts to serve.
