Cooking Steps

Get Prepped
1

Chop the free-range chicken thigh into 2 cm pieces. Finely slice the red cabbage. Grate the carrot (unpeeled). Pick the coriander leaves.

Marinate The Chicken
2

In a medium bowl, add the chicken thigh, the mild Mexican spice blend and a drizzle of olive oil. Toss to coat the chicken in the spice and season with a good pinch of salt and pepper. Set aside to marinate.

Cook the Cabbage
3

Heat a large frying pan over a medium-high heat. Add a drizzle of olive oil and the red cabbage and cook for 3-4 minutes, or until softened. Add the vinegar and the water *check the ingredients list for the amount) and cook for 1 minute. Remove from the heat and transfer to a medium bowl. Cover with foil to keep warm.

Cook The Chicken
4

Return the frying pan to a medium-high heat. Add a drizzle of olive oil and cook the Mexican chicken for 5-6 minutes, or until cooked through and golden. Set aside.

Heat The Tortillas
5

While the chicken is cooking, heat the mini flour tortillas on a plate in the microwave or in a sandwich press for a few seconds, or until warmed through.

Serve Up
6

Divide the mini flour tortillas between plates and top with the red cabbage, the grated carrot and the Mexican chicken. Dollop with the mango mayonnaise and sprinkle with the coriander.
