Cooking Instructions:
  • 1. TO MAKE THE CRUNCHY SLAW:

    Peel and grate the carrot. Mix in a bowl with the slaw mix, a drizzle of olive oil and salt and pepper. Finely chop the Italian parsley and stir ½ through the slaw saving the remaining for garnish.

  • 2. TO COOK THE CHICKEN:

    Remove the free-range chicken breasts from their packaging and pat dry with paper towel. Dice into 2 cm cubes and mix in a bowl with the Mexi lime marinade. Heat a drizzle of cooking oil in a non-stick frying pan over a medium-high heat. Once hot, add the marinated chicken. Cook stirring regularly for 5-6 mins.

  • 3. TO WARM THE TACOS:

    Microwave option (preferred): Place the soft tacos on a plate and microwave on high (750w) for 30–40 secs. Oven option: Preheat oven to 160°C (fan bake). Wrap the soft tacos in tinfoil and place in the oven for 4-5 mins. Fry pan method: Heat a non-stick frying pan over a medium high heat. When the pan is hot heat each taco for 20-30 secs each side.

  • TO SERVE:

    Arrange a spoonful of slaw on each taco, top with chicken, a dollop of chipotle and lime mayo and sprinkle over the spiced pepitas and remaining parsley.
