Ingredients

3tbsp olive oil

300g frozen chicken breast chunks

1tbsp Schwartz Fajita Seasoning

1tbsp lemon juice from concentrate, mixed with 2tsp water

1 small red chilli (finely chopped) - optional

3 Little Gem lettuces (washed and roughly torn)

300g can Good & balanced Mexican Style Bean Mix (rinsed and drained)

1 large ripe avocado (peeled, stoned and sliced)

1 small red onion (finely sliced)

Coriander

Lime wedges

Method

1
Put 1tbsp of the oil in a large nonstick pan over a medium heat. Add the chicken pieces and fry for 12-15 mins, until thoroughly cooked through. Add the Fajita seasoning 2 mins before the end, stirring to stop it catching.
2
To make the dressing, whisk the remaining oil in a small bowl with the lemon juice and chilli, if using. Set aside.
3
To build the salad, divide the lettuce between 4 plates and scatter over the beans, avocado and onion.
4
Top with the chicken and drizzle over the dressing. Serve straight away with coriander and lime wedges, if using.
