Cheesy Cajun Chicken
with Pinto Bean Salad and Lime Cream
Instructions
1 Prep salad
Peel and finely chop the shallots (see pro tip). Place the shallots, vinegar, sugar, oil, salt and pepper in a bowl. Set aside to marinate. Chop the tomatoes. Rinse and drain the pinto beans.
2 Make lime cream
Juice the lime. In a small bowl, combine the sour cream and 2/3/4 tsp of lime juice with a pinch of salt. Mix well and set aside.
3 Fry chicken
Pat the chicken breasts dry with kitchen paper. Turn the chicken in the cajun spice (spicy!), salt and pepper until coated. Heat a pan over a medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil. Once hot, add the chicken and reduce the heat to low. Fry for 5 min on each side or until cooked through.
4 Melt cheese
Sprinkle the cooked chicken breasts with the grated cheddar and mozzarella. Cover with a lid and take the pan off the heat. Set aside for 5 min or until the cheese has melted.
5 Combine salad
Meanwhile, add the chopped tomatoes and the drained pinto beans to the marinated shallots. Mix to combine. Check the seasoning. Add a pinch of salt, pepper and sugar.
6 Serve
Serve the cheesy cajun chicken with the pinto bean salad and the lime cream.
Tips for fussy eaters
Fry their chicken without the cajun spice. Serve their cheesy chicken with mashed potatoes, rice or pasta.
Pro tip
Marinate the shallots well in advance.
