    Cut the roasted red capsicum and the tomato into 1 cm cubes. Heat a drizzle of olive oil in a non-stick frying pan over a medium-high heat. When the pan is hot add the corn and black beans and cook for 3-4 mins. Open the bag of steamed turmeric rice and wild rice breaking up any clumps by squeezing gently. Add the rice and roasted red capsicum and cook for 1-2 mins. Add baby spinach and diced tomato, season with salt and pepper and mix until baby spinach has wilted then add to a serving dish.

  • 2. TO COOK THE CHICKEN:

    Remove the free-range chicken breasts from their packaging and pat dry with a paper towel. Cut each chicken breast into 1 cm strips. Heat a drizzle of olive oil in a large non-stick frying pan over a medium to high heat. When the pan is hot add the chicken breast and cook for 2-3 mins each side. Add the mojo sauce and cook for 1 min to reduce slightly.
