Cooking Steps

• Finely chop garlic. Slice chicken breast into thin strips. • In a medium saucepan, melt half the butter with a dash of olive oil over a medium heat. Add garlic and cook until fragrant, 1-2 minutes. • Add basmati rice, the water and a generous pinch of salt, stir, then bring to 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!

• While rice is cooking, roughly chop baby spinach leaves. Drain sweetcorn. • SPICY! You may find the spice blend hot! Add less if you're sensitive to heat. In a medium bowl, combine chicken, Mexican Fiesta spice blend, a pinch of salt, a drizzle of olive oil and set aside. • Heat a large frying pan over high heat. Add corn kernels and cook until lightly browned, 4-5 minutes. Transfer to a large bowl.

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

• When rice has 10 minutes remaining, in a large frying pan, heat a drizzle of olive oil over high heat. Cook chicken strips, tossing occasionally, until browned and cooked through (when no longer pink inside), 3-4 minutes. • Add enchilada sauce (see ingredients) and a splash of water and cook until slightly thickened, 1 minute. • Remove pan from heat, add remaining butter and stir until combines. Season to taste.

• To the bowl with corn, add slaw mix, spinach, a pinch of salt, a drizzle of white wine vinegar and olive oil. Toss to combine and season to taste. • Divide garlic rice and charred corn slaw between bowls. Top with Mexican chicken and spoon over any remaining sauce. Serve with mayonnaise. Enjoy!
