  1. Chicken & JALAPEÑO

    Preheat the oven to 200°C. Place a pan over medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil. When hot, fry the mince and work quickly to break it up as it starts to cook. Fry until browned, 3-4 [4-5]|#7DA0D7 minutes (shifting occasionally). During the final 1-2 minutes, add the NOMU rub. Place in a bowl and combine with the sour cream, the spring onion whites, the jalapeños (to taste), and season.

  2. GET ROLLIN’

    Place the tortillas in a single layer on a chopping board. Place 1-2 tbsp of the Chicken mixture down the center of each tortilla in a straight line from top to bottom (you may have some chicken filling left over!). Roll up each tortilla tightly so that it resembles a cylinder with the filling inside. Place on a lightly greased baking tray in a single layer, fold-side down. Pop in the oven and bake until golden and starting to crisp, 10-12 minutes.

  3. Corn SALAD

    Return the pan to medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil. When hot, fry the Corn until starting to char, 4-5 minutes (shifting occasionally). Remove from the pan and place in a bowl. Toss with the peppers, ½ the coriander, the spring onion greens, the salad leaves, and season.

  4. ‘QUITO’ DIET!

    Pile up the Chicken and jalapeño taquitos. Side with the charred corn salad. Serve with the Guacamole for dunking. Side with any remaining chicken filling. Sprinkle over the remaining coriander. Well done, Chef!
