【Makes 4 portions

  • 1 package of ground chicken (around 400 grams) but you can also use diced chicken breasts if you prefer.
  • 1 can black beans (can be substituted for any beans you like)
  • Half a can of sweetcorn
  • 1 can of chopped tomatoes
  • 1 red bell pepper
  • 1 large onion (sliced or diced)
  • 2 cloves of garlic (minced)
  • 1 courgette (zucchini)
  • 2 avocados (cubed/ half per person)
  • 4 cups fresh spinach (chopped)
  • Seasoning: rosemary, cumin, chilli powder, paprika, salt
  • Optional toppings (cheese, tortilla chips, lime, MCT oil drizzled over veggies)

Instructions

  1. In a pan, sauté half the onion in some olive oil and add your sliced bell pepper and courgette along with rosemary, salt, cumin, and chili powder. Cook these until tender. You can also add any other vegetables you like or substitute your preferences!
  2. In a separate pan, sauté the other half of the onion with two cloves of minced garlic. Add in the chicken and season well with paprika, chilli powder, salt, and cumin. When the chicken is slightly browning, add in the can of tomatoes, beans (drained), and sweetcorn. Bring to a simmer. Make sure to taste and add seasoning to your liking.
  3. When everything is cooked, it is time to assemble your taco bowl. Chop one cup of spinach per bowl, add half an avocado (cubed), and add a serving of your vegetables and chicken chilli.
  4. You can top this with some shredded cheddar cheese and tortilla chips if you like. You may dress it with lime for some extra zing! You can also drizzle MCT oil over your veggies.
