Ingredients:

  • 2 medium red onions, peeled and sliced
  • 2 peppers, ideally different colours, cored and sliced
  • 4 skinless chicken breasts
  • 2 tbsp oil
  • 2 heaped tsp fajita seasoning
  • 200g easy cook rice

45 MINS

SERVES 4

EASY

Method:

Preheat the oven to 180C fan.

Place the prepared onions and peppers on a large, shallow non-stick baking tray; add 1 tbsp oil and season with salt and pepper. Using your hands toss the vegetables to ensure they are evenly coated, then divide the veggies in half pushing each half to the sides of the tray.

In a small bowl mix 1 tbsp of oil with the fajita seasoning. Place the chicken breasts in the centre of the tray and brush liberally with the seasoned oil. Place the tray into the preheated over for 20 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked.

Meanwhile cook the rice in boiling salted water until tender, approximately 12-15 minutes. When cooked, immediately rinse the rice with plenty of cold water and drain in a colander.

When cooked, allow the chicken to cool before slicing.

Divide the rice between the four lunch boxes. Next added the roasted veggies, followed by the chicken. Spoon the salsa over the chicken, sprinkle with the grated Mexicana and finally garnish with the coriander and lime wedges.

Once completely cold, clip on the lids on and pop the lunch boxes in the fridge for up to 4 days.

To serve, remove the lid, squeeze the lime over the naked burrito, loosely replace the lid and microwave for approximately 3 minutes on high power, or until piping hot.

High Protein Mexicana® Omelette

High Protein Mexicana® Omelette

High Protein Mexicana® Omelette

Ingredients:

  • 3 medium eggs
  • 30g Mexicana Extra Hot, grated
  • 1 spring onion, trimmed and washed, sliced on the diagonal
  • 50g roasted peppers from a jar, drained and sliced
  • Salt and pepper
  • 1 cal frying spray, or a little oil for cooking

20 MINS

SERVES 1

EASY

Method:

Break the eggs into a bowl or jug and beat well with a fork, add the grated Mexicana and season to taste.

Heat a 18-20cm non-stick frying pan over a high heat and spray with 1 cal stray (or use a litle oil).

When the pan is hot pour in the egg mixture. Using a silicone spatula, immediately start to drag the cooked egg away from the edges of the pan, leaving it in the centre. This will allow runny, uncooked egg to fill the gaps. Continue this process, occasionally tilting the pan to encourage raw egg to find its way to the pans hot surface. After about 3 minutes the omelette will start to set, sprinkle over the spring onion and roasted peppers.
Immediately cover the pan with a large serving plate and turn off the heat.

Leave the covered omelette to stand for two minutes; allowing the residual heat to finish cooking the omelette.

Dry the warmed plate used to cover the pan and carefully transfer the omelette on to the plate and serve.
