Yield 2 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 20

1 red pepper
1 medium red onion
2 chicken breasts, skinless
1 teaspoon smoked paprika
1 pinch ground cumin
2 limes
olive oil
sea salt
black pepper, freshly ground
4 flour tortillas
150 ml sour cream
230 g guacamole
100 g cheddar cheese, grated
1 fresh red chili
15 cherry tomatoes
1 small bunch fresh coriander
sea salt
black pepper, freshly ground
1 lime
extra virgin olive oil, put the griddle pan on high heat

Steps:

  • Put the griddle pan on high heat.
  • Halve and deseed the pepper and cut it into thin strips.
  • Peel, halve, and finely slice the onion.
  • Slice the chicken lengthways into long strips roughly the same size as your pepper strips.
  • Put the peppers, onion and chicken into a bowl with the paprika and cumin.
  • Squeeze over the juice of half a lime, drizzle with some olive oil, season with a pinch of salt and pepper and mix well.
  • Put to one side to marinate for 5 minutes or so while you make your salsa.
  • Finely chop the chilli. Roughly chop the tomatoes and the coriander, stalks and all.
  • Put the chilli and tomatoes into a second bowl with a good pinch of salt and pepper and the juice of 1 lime. Add some extra virgin olive oil, then stir in your chopped coriander.
  • Use a pair of tongs to put all the pieces of pepper, onion, and chicken into your preheated pan to cook for 6-8 minutes, until the chicken is golden and cooked through.
  • As the pan will be really hot, keep turning the pieces of chicken and vegetables over so they don't burn - you just want them to lightly chr grill to give you a lovely flavour.
  • Warm the tortillas up in the microwave or a warm dry pan.
  • Divide your warmed tortillas between the serving plates.
  • Halve the remaining lime and squeeze the juice over the sizzling chicken mixture.
  • Divide the chicken mixture beween the tortillas.
  • Top with cheese, salsa, and sour cream.
