-

You can use salmon or prawns if you prefer – if you like, use precooked ones for ease.

Serves 4 Prep 30 mins Cook 20 mins

2 chicken breasts

2 tbsp olive oil

2 tsp fajita spice mix

1 avocado, stoned and peeled

1 lime, zested and juiced

1 red onion, cut into thin wedges

1 red and 1 yellow pepper, deseeded and cut into thin strips

8 flour tortillas

12 cherry tomatoes, halved bunch of coriander, leaves picked

150ml soured cream

1 Slice the chicken breasts in half, then cut each half into chunks or thin strips. Transfer to a bowl along with 1 tbsp oil and the fajita mix, and mix everything together with your hands. Scoop the avocado flesh into a bowl and mash with the lime zest and juice and some seasoning.

2 Meanwhile, heat the rest of the oil in a large frying pan over a high heat, and fry the onion until just cooked and charred at the edges. Season and tip into a bowl. Fry the peppers in batches in the same way, and add to the bowl with the onions. Transfer the veg to a baking dish and keep warm in a low oven.

3 Heat a griddle or large frying pan over a high heat, and cook the chicken in batches until just charred at the edges and cooked through. Tip into the baking dish in the oven.

4 Heat the tortillas in the microwave following the pack instructio­ns. Put the dish of chicken and veg on the table, and serve with the tortillas, guacamole, coriander leaves and soured cream so everyone can help themselves.
