Here’s a quick dish that I used to make on the stove, which I’ve converted for the Thermomix. It’s a versatile dish that can be eaten on its own or in a salad. The spice mix provides those yummy Mexican flavours.
Serves 4-6
Ingredients
1 large onion, peeled and quartered
2 cloves garlic, peeled
15g vegetable oil
1/2 tsp cayenne pepper
1 tsp dried oregano
2 tsp smoked paprika
11/2 tbsp dried cumin
400g can diced tomatoes
600g chicken breast, cut into 3cm pieces
Salt and pepper to season
425g can cannellini beans, drained and rinsed
400-425g can sweet corn, drained
Instructions
1. Put onion and garlic in the Thermomix and chop for 3 seconds/Speed 5
2. Scrape down the sides of the bowl, add oil, cayenne pepper, oregano, paprika and cumin and sauté with the measuring cup (MC) off for 3 minutes/Varoma/Speed 1
3. Add tomatoes, chicken, salt and pepper and cook with the MC half off for 15 minutes/100C/Reverse/Speed soft
4. Add beans and sweet corn and cook with the MC half off for 5 minutes/Varoma/Reverse/Speed soft
Servicing Suggestions
