  1. ZESTY CABBAGE SLAW

    To a bowl, add the sliced cabbage. Toss through ½ the lime juice, a drizzle of oil, and seasoning. Set aside.

  2. MEXICAN MINCE

    Place a pan over medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil. When hot, fry the sliced onion until golden, 4-5 minutes (shifting occasionally). Add the mince and the Mexican spice, working quickly to break the mince up as it starts to cook. Fry until browned, 3-4 minutes (shifting occasionally). Season and remove from the pan. Cover and set aside.

  3. CHARRED CORN

    Return the pan to medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil. When hot, fry the corn until lightly charred, 3-4 minutes (shifting occasionally). Remove from the pan and set aside.

  4. MAKE THE GUACAMOLE

    Halve the avocado and set aside half for another meal. Scoop the avocado flesh into a bowl and mash with a fork. Mix through the diced tomato, the diced onion (to taste), ½ the chopped coriander, the remaining lime juice (to taste), and seasoning.

  5. SOUR CREAM SAUCE

    In a small bowl, combine the sour cream with the remaining coriander, a drizzle of oil, and seasoning. Set aside.

  6. TOASTY TORTILLAS

    Place the tortillas on a microwavable plate and sprinkle with droplets of water. Heat in the microwave for 30 seconds. Alternatively, place a clean pan over a medium heat. When hot, dry toast the tortillas until lightly crisped, 15 seconds per side. Once heated, stack under a dry tea towel to stop them from drying out.

  7. FANTASTIC FILLING

    Lay down the tortillas and fill with the limey cabbage, the chicken and onion mixture, the jalapeños (to taste), dollops of guac, and the charred corn. Smear with the coriander sour cream. Enjoy, Chef!
