• 1lb / 500g Chicken Breast, diced into very small chunks (at room temp)

Instructions:

1. Preheat oven to 356F/180C.
2. Place chicken into a mixing bowl. Remove 1 tsp from your fajita mix (this will be used for the veg) and pour the rest in with the chicken. Use a spatula to combine until completely coated, then place to one side.
3. Heat 1 tbsp oil in a pan over medium-high heat, then add your chicken. Fry until white through the centre and nicely charred on the outside. Remove from pan.
4. Heat up 1 tsp oil (or as needed) then add your peppers, onion and jalapeños if using. Fry until they begin to soften, then stir in 1 tsp fajita seasoning. Continue frying until completely soft and starting to char.
5. Turn off heat.
6. Add chicken back in and stir through the juice of half a lime. Place pan to one side.
7. Stack half your tortilla chips, followed by half the chicken, followed by half the cheese. Repeat another layer, then pop in the oven for 15mins or until the cheese goes nice and gooey.
8. Garnish with coriander/cilantro and serve with guac, salsa and sour cream!
