Ingredients

• 1 small onion, finely diced
• 500gms chicken mince or chicken breast. If using whole chicken breasts, finely dice or mince in a food processor.
• 1x 400gm can borlotti beans or red kidney beans
• 3 tablespoons taco seasoning
• Tortillas or taco shells
• Your choice of fillings. Although less than traditional, we will serve ours with grated cheese, diced tomato, diced cucumber, shredded lettuce, tinned sweet corn, sliced mushroom, mashed avocado, sour cream

Instructions

1. In a little oil or water (I use extra virgin olive oil), saute the leek or onion in a pan over a low heat until soft.
2. Add the chicken and continue stirring over a medium-low heat until the meat changes colour completely.
3. Add 3 tablespoons of homemade taco seasoning and the chicken stock. Increase heat slightly and bring the mix to a fast simmer, stirring regularly as the liquid reduces. This won't take long so keep a close eye on it. You want the sauce to be slightly wet but not runny.
4. Serve with tortillas or taco shells and your choice of toppings.
