Cajun chicken & chunky bean salsa recipe

Ingredients

  • 2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • ½ tsp olive oil
  • 1 tbsp Cajun seasoning, we used Bart (or make your own – see recipe, below)

For the salsa

  • 400g can pinto bean, rinsed and drained
  • 2 red peppers, diced
  • 1 avocado, diced
  • 2 spring onions, sliced
  • 1 tbsp olive
  • juice 1 lemon
  • handful coriander, chopped

Method

  • To make the salsa, tip the beans, peppers, avocado and spring onions into a bowl. Season, dress with the olive oil and lemon juice, and set aside.

  • Lay the chicken breasts on a board and bash a bit to flatten them out slightly. Place in a dish, drizzle with a little olive oil, then coat with the Cajun seasoning. Heat a griddle pan and cook the chicken for 5 mins on each side, turning if you want to get a criss-cross pattern, until cooked all the way through. Stir coriander through the salsa just before serving. Serve the chicken either whole or sliced.
