Recipe: Mexican chicken tray bake

June 11, 2019 by Shari

You know that I’m a sucker for a tray bake and anything Mexican. So I thought, why not combine the two. Just pop everything in the tray and then into the oven – allowing free hands to wrangle children, assist with homework, scroll through social media or you know pour yourself a wine.

I thought this tray bake was missing something… guacamole. I mean, why do Mexican takeaways always have guacamole as an extra – everyone wants guacamole!

So I pimped up my usual guacamole with a little red onion and more corn and we had a winner, winner, chicken dinner.

Recipe: Mexican chicken tray bake

  • 500 grams of chicken
  • 500 grams of potato
  • 500 grams of sweet potato
  • 3 cobs of corn
  • 2 red onions
  • 2 avocados
  • 1 bunch of coriander
  • 1 tbsp of cumin
  • 1 tbsp of coriander seeds
  • 1 tbsp of paprika
  • 1 tbsp of oregano
  • 1 lime
  • olive oil
  • sea salt

Cut the chicken, potato, sweet potato, 2 cobs of corn and red onion into similar sized pieces. Pop into a baking dish and drizzle with olive oil. Add the cumin, coriander seeds, paprika, oregano, sea salt and coriander stalks.

Toss until everything is coated and then pop into a 180 degree oven for 30 minutes or until everything is cooked through and golden.

Whilst the tray bake is cooking, boil the remaining cob of corn for 5 minutes and then remove the corn kernels when cool enough.

Toss the corn kernels with cubes of avocado and red onion then season with coriander leaves, lime juice, olive oil and sea salt.

We tried a more ‘traditional’ dough, coated in cinnamon sugar, as well as the Nutella filled dough because well kids on school holidays 🤷🏼‍♀️

The boys also polished off a few slices of their cakes - tiramisu, strawberry sponge and the almond and chocolate roulade - washed down with a babycino. I enjoyed a delicious coffee in peace before we escaped to the park to burn off that sugar. 

Definitely worth checking out whether there is a Kurtosh near you! @kurtosh_official @collab.rium

Our salmon is partnered with crispy potatoes, asparagus and this little tomato and oregano dressing.

To make the dressing, mince the oregano and flat leaf parsley on a chopping board with a very sharp knife, add them to a mixing bowl, then add grated tomatoes, garlic, anchovies, capers, and olives. Combine well and check the seasoning, adding more lemon juice, olive oil, salt or pepper as necessary.

GoodFoodWeek started in 2008 as a way of sharing recipes with uni friends and family who were spread near and far. It has evolved over the years to contain my ramblings as I’ve searched for a house, planned the perfect veggie patch, stumbled through farmer’s markets with my eye half open (because you need to be there at 6am to get the fresh eggs), had babies, gathered family and friends around a shared table, laughed out loud and enjoyed life to the fullest!
