Method

  • step 1

    Heat a griddle on a medium heat, rub 1 tbsp oil all over the chicken, and season with salt and pepper. Cook for 25 mins, turning every 5 mins, until the skin is golden and the flesh juicy and cooked through. Lift onto a plate to rest.

  • step 2

    Meanwhile, heat oven to 180C/160C fan/ gas 4. Brush the tortillas with 1 tbsp oil, then cut each into 6 triangles. Spread over a large baking sheet, then bake for 10 mins or until golden and crisp.

  • step 3

    Put the tomatoes and onion in a mixing bowl, then add a good pinch of salt and a grind of pepper. Add the remaining olive oil, chilli, Tabasco and the juice of 1 lime. Leave to one side.

  • step 4

    Peel and stone the avocados, then chop and mash lightly. Stir in the remaining lime juice and the tomato mix, then fold through the herbs.

  • step 5

    Slice the chicken and serve it with the corn chips, guacamole and more lime wedges for squeezing over. This great sharing dish goes well with a few cold beers and maybe some mayo.

RECIPE TIPS
COOKING CHICKEN

The secret to the chicken is not too much heat - cook it too fast and the outside will be dry, the inside raw. And keep the skin on to protect that juicy, white flesh.

Delicious and so easy to make. I didn't use Tabasco or parsley but you don't need it - you can make any variation of guacamole as you like! Love it!

Yum! It is a perfect summerdish. Nice indeed with a cold beer!! Especially when you scrape the last bits of guacamole of your plate with the chips mmm This is so very much better then the 'glow in the dark'-green substance from the supermarket; and so easy to prepare!
