Steps
-
Cook potatoes Preheat oven to 230oC. Dice potatoes 2cm. Toss on a lined oven tray with a drizzle of oil. Season and cook for about 25 minutes, until tender. Dice tomatoes 1cm. When potatoes are cooked, switch oven to high grill. Sprinkle potatoes with tomatoes and cheese and grill for 1-2 minutes, until cheese is golden.
-
Cook chicken Pat chicken dry and cut into steaks. Place your hand flat on top of chicken and slice through horizontally. Sprinkle with 1 Tbsp Mexican spices and season with salt. Heat a drizzle of oil in a large fry-pan on medium high heat. Cook chicken for 3-5 minutes each side, until cooked through. Remove from pan and rest, covered.
-
Prep veggies and cook corn Finely dice onion and shred lettuce. Set aside separately. Return pan to medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil. Cook corn and onion for 3-4 minutes, until tender. Add remaining Mexican spices and cook a further 30 seconds, stirring until fragrant. Transfer to a bowl.
-
Shred chicken Shred chicken using two forks, add to bowl with corn and onion, along with lettuce and mayo and toss gently to combine. Season to taste. In a bowl, combine sour cream and sweet chilli sauce. Keep some plain for fussier little foodies.
