Cooking Steps

SPICY! This is a mild spice blend, but use less if you're sensitive to heat.

• Cut capsicum and zucchini into bite-sized pieces. • Cut chicken breast into bite-sized chunks. • Drain red kidney beans (see ingredients). • In a medium bowl, combine chicken, Tex-Mex spice blend and a drizzle of olive oil.

• In a large frying pan, heat a drizzle of olive oil over a high heat. • Cook chicken, in batches, stirring, until browned, 3-4 minutes. Transfer to a plate and set aside (the chicken will finish cooking in step 3). • Return the pan to a medium-high heat with a drizzle of olive oil. • Cook capsicum and zucchini, stirring, until softened, 4-5 minutes. • Add tomato paste and cook until fragrant, 1-2 minutes. • Reduce the heat to medium, add the water and chicken stock powder. Simmer until slightly thickened, 3-4 minutes.
