Ingredients

  • 1 medium chicken

  • 1 tsp each of salt, dried cumin, oregano, cayenne pepper, garlic powder, white pepper 

  • 400g cooked rice 

  • Cherry vine tomatoes, chopped 

  • 1 tin blackbeans, drained 

  • 1 red pepper, sliced 

  • 4 scallions, chopped 

  • Sour cream 

  • Baby leaf salad 

  • Tortilla wraps

  • Fresh coriander

Method

  1. Preheat a fan oven to 170°C. Combine the dried herbs and spices in a small bowl. Place the chicken into a large oven proof dish. Press the spice mixture onto the chicken and rub well so that it coats all the skin. Cover the dish with tin foil (or a lid if you have one).
  2. Bake the chicken in the oven for 90 minutes. Take off the tin foil lid for the last 10 minutes of cooking.

  3. Once cooked, remove the chicken from the oven and serve with rice, tortilla and all the fresh ingredients. Squeeze a little lime or lemon juice on top before eating.
