Steps:

  • Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6 and wrap 6 medium tortillas in foil.
  • Mix 1 heaped tbsp smoked paprika, 1 tbsp ground coriander, a pinch of ground cumin, 2 crushed garlic cloves, 4 tbsp olive oil, the juice of 1 lime and 4-5 drops Tabasco together in a bowl with a big pinch each of salt and pepper.
  • Stir 2 finely sliced chicken breasts, 1 finely sliced red onion, 1 sliced red pepper and 1 finely sliced red chilli, if using, into the marinade.
  • Heat a griddle pan until smoking hot and add the chicken and marinade to the pan.
  • Keep everything moving over a high heat for about 5 mins using tongs until you get a nice charred effect. If your griddle pan is small you may need to do this in two batches.
  • To check the chicken is cooked, find the thickest part and tear in half - if any part is still raw cook until done.
  • Put the tortillas in the oven to heat up and serve with the cooked chicken, a bag of mixed salad and one 230g tub of fresh salsa.

Steps:

  • Combine lime juice, jalapeno, garlic, cilantro, pepper, cumin, oregano and salt in a gallon-sized Ziploc bag.
  • Add in chicken.
  • Refrigerate at least 8 hours, mushing the bag occasionally. (I put the bag into a bowl, just in case it leaks, and generally marinade it for 12 hours).
  • Saute green peppers and onion in oil until the onions are translucent and the green peppers still slightly crisp.
  • Add in marinated meat.
  • Cook until meat is done.
  • Serve with tortillas, salsa and sour cream.
