COOK & CHOP THE Chicken
Place a pan (with a lid) over medium heat with a drizzle of oil. Pat the Chicken dry with paper towel. When hot, fry the chicken on one side until golden, 4-5 minutes. Flip, cover with the lid, and fry until cooked through, 4-5 minutes. Remove from the pan, roughly chop, season, and set aside.
CHEESY CASSEROLE
Return the pan to medium heat with a drizzle of oil. When hot, fry the onions, and the Corn until golden, 4-5 minutes (shifting occasionally). Add the NOMU rub (to taste), and the stock & flour and fry until fragrant, 1-2 minutes. Pour in the tomato passata and 100ml [200ml]|#7DA0D7 of water. Simmer until thickening, 8-10 minutes. In the final 3-4 minutes, mix in the beans, the Chicken, and scatter over the cheese. Cover and allow the cheese to melt.
DIP & DINE
Serve the casserole straight from the pan for a rustic touch, or plate individually if preferred. Scatter over the jalapenos, and dollop over the sour cream. Side with the nacho chips for dippers. Enjoy!
