    ¼ tsp ground cinnamon
    500g Waitrose Fresh British Free Range
    Chicken Thigh Fillets
    2 tsp olive oil

    the spices and some seasoning and rub over the chicken.
    Place, flattened out in a small roasting tin and drizzle
    with the olive oil. Add the sliced peppers to the pan
    and roast for 25–30 minutes, or until the chicken is
    cooked through and there is no pink meat.

    2. While the chicken is cooking, mix together the
    sweetcorn, salad onions, red chilli, coriander and
    some seasoning. Stir in the lime juice and sugar.

    3. Heat a non-stick frying pan over a medium heat. Add
    the tortillas and cook for a minute on each side. Cut
    the chicken into slices then arrange over the wraps
    with the peppers. Spoon over the sweetcorn salsa.
    Wrap up and serve with soured cream, diced avocado
    and shredded salad leaves.

    Cook’s tip

    Try experimenting with flavours and swap the chicken for
    beef, such as essential Waitrose British Beef Sirloin Steak.

    Drinks recommendation

    Serve Cusquena, £4.29/4x33cl. This unusual Peruvian beer has a cool, light, almost sweet flavour.
