Recipe: Chicken & Coriander Wraps

This dinner is a regular in our household. It's relatively quick & easy, it's light and healthy with vibrant Mexican flavours.



Ingredients:
3 chicken breast fillets
1 bunch coriander
2 cloves garlic- just lean on them with the side of your knife to crush, take the skin off, no need to chop
2 chicken stock cubes
1 red onion
4 tomatoes
300g sour cream
1 can re-fried beans
8 flour tortillas
2 Tablespoons sweet chilli sauce (your favourite brand)
Salt & Pepper

Method:

1. Fill a large saucepan with hot water. Add the stems & roots from the coriander, garlic, stock cubes and off cuts from the onion.

 
 2. Bring to a simmer. Add chicken breast fillets and cook for 20 minutes or until chicken is cooked through. Once cooked, remove from the liquid and allow to cool slightly.

 
3. Meanwhile, chop the tomatoes in half and remove the seeds. I just do this with my fingers, but its probably best to wear an apron cos you may be sprayed with seeds.
 
4. Finely chop the tomatoes and red onion. Combine in a bowl with Sweet chilli sauce and salt & pepper to taste.

5. Slice or shred the chicken and place into a bowl. Chop the coriander leaves, doesn't have to be too fine and mix through the chicken.

6. Warm the re-fried beans and tortillas according to the directions on the tin/packet.

To eat: Spread the warmed tortilla with approximately 1 Tablespoon of the re-fried beans, repeat with sour cream and then top with the tomato/onion mix and the chicken/coriander mix. Roll up and enjoy!
