Ingredients
  • 1 skinless chicken breast
  • 1 brown onion sliced
  • 1-2 cloves of garlic minced
  • 1 teaspoon of ground cumin
  • 1 teaspoon of paprika
  • 1 teaspoon of dried chilli flakes
  • ½ teaspoon of ground coriander
  • 1 teaspoon of ground oregano
  • 2 teaspoons of olive oil
Instructions
  1. Preheat oven to 200C (400F). Slice the chicken breast into thin pieces and set aside.
  2. In a medium bowl, mix together the sliced brown onion, garlic, ground cumin, paprika, dried chilli flakes, coriander, oregano and olive oil. Add the chicken and stir to coat evenly.
  3. Take some aluminium foil and place on a baking tray. Roll the sides of the foil up to create a nest and pour the chicken mixture in. Cover the chicken completely with extra foil and place in the oven.
  4. Cook for 25 minutes and remove from the oven to stir. Place back in the oven for another 10-15 minutes without the extra foil over the top until the chicken is cooked through and golden.
  5. Serve with salad, or with tortillas and condiments.
