Cooking Instructions:

BEFORE COOKING:

Preheat oven to 210℃ (fan bake).
1. TO COOK THE CAULIFLOWER BITES AND CHIPOTLE CHICKEN:

Line an oven tray with baking paper. Cut the cauliflower into small bite sized pieces and place on the oven tray. Spray with oil. Remove the free-range chicken breasts from their packaging and pat dry with a paper towel. Cut the chicken breasts into 3 equal size portions and place on the oven tray. Spoon on the chipotle marinade and turn the chicken to coat well. Season with salt and place in the oven for 15-16 mins until cauliflower is golden and chicken is cooked through. Leave the chicken to rest for 1-2 mins before slicing.
2. TO HEAT THE TORTILLAS:

Wrap the wholemeal tortillas in tinfoil and place in the oven when the chicken has 5 mins remaining.
3. TO PREPARE THE CHARRED CORN AND SPINACH:

Roughly chop the coriander. Spray a non-stick frying pan with oil and place over a medium-high heat. Once hot add the corn, season with salt and cook for 4-5 mins stirring occasionally to create a char. Let the corn cool slightly and place in a salad bowl with the baby spinach. Add half the coriander, drizzle with olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Toss to combine.
TO SERVE:

Place a spoonful of charred corn and spinach onto the tortillas. Add a couple of cauliflower bites and top with sliced chipotle chicken. Dollop with avocado cream, tomatillo salsa and remaining coriander. Serve remaining charred corn, spinach salad and cauliflower bites on the side.
