Instructions

Step 1

1. Combine the chicken, oil, chipotle paste, lime juice, garlic and salt in a large bowl and mix well until the chicken is coated all over, then transfer to an air fryer basket and cook at 200°C for 12-15 minutes, flipping once, until cooked through. Alternatively, heat a few sprays of low-calorie cooking spray in a non-stick frying pan over a medium heat and cook the chicken for 5-10 minutes.

Step 2

2. Slice the tortillas into eight triangles and transfer to an air fryer basket. Sprinkle over the paprika and spray with cooking spray, then cook at 200°C for 4-6 minutes until crunchy. Alternatively, place on a baking tray lined with baking paper and bake at 180°C (160°C fan/350°F/Gas 4) for 10 minutes.

Step 3

3. Meanwhile, combine all the salsa ingredients in a blender and blend until combined, then transfer to sauce pots.

Step 4

4. Divide the chicken among airtight containers, then add the lettuce, sweetcorn and spring onions. Store the tortilla chips in separate containers to keep them crunchy. This will keep in the fridge for up to 4 days.
