Cooking Steps
ā¢ Slice tomato into half-moons. Slice cucumber into thin sticks. Cut chicken thigh into strips. ā¢ In a medium bowl, combine chicken, peri-peri seasoning, a pinch of salt, and a drizzle of olive oil.
Little cooks: Help toss the chicken in the peri-peri seasoning.
ā¢ In a large frying pan, heat a drizzle of olive oil over medium-high heat. ā¢ Cook chicken, tossing, until browned and cooked through, 5-6 minutes each side. ā¢ Remove from heat, then add sweet chilli sauce and a splash of water, tossing to coat.
TIP: Chicken is cooked through when it is no longer pink inside.
ā¢ In a second medium bowl, combine mixed salad leaves, cucumber, tomato and a drizzle of white wine vinegar and olive oil. Season.
Little cooks: Take the lead by tossing the salad!
ā¢ Microwave mini flour tortillas on a plate in 10-second bursts until warmed through. ā¢ Roughly chop chicken. ā¢ Spread garlic aioli on each tortilla, then fill with cucumber-tomato salad and sticky peri-peri chicken. ā¢ Drizzle over any remaining pan glaze to serve. Enjoy!
