1. To make tortilla crisps, cut each tortilla into 8 triangles. Arrange in a
single layer over a baking tray. Lightly spray with cooking oil. Bake
in 180C oven (fan-forced) for 5 minutes, or until lightly browned.
Remove. Cool on tray.
2. Meanwhile, cut chicken fillets horizontally through the middle to
make 4 thin steaks. Combine spices, garlic and oil in a large shallow
dish. Add chicken. Using clean hands, rub with spice mix to coat.
3. Heat a large, ovenproof, non-stick frying pan over a mediumhigh heat. Add chicken. Cook for 2-3 minutes on each side, until
browned. Transfer to a large plate.
4. Add tomato paste to same pan. Stir over heat 30 seconds. Stir
in tomatoes, beans and ¾ cup water. Bring to the boil. Reduce
heat. Return chicken to pan. Simmer uncovered for 5 minutes,
or until chicken is cooked and sauce is thickened. Top chicken
with cheese.
5. Preheat oven grill to high. Place pan under preheated grill for
about 2 minutes, or until cheese is melted and lightly browned.
Transfer pan to a heatproof mat or wooden board. Take care (use
oven mitts) as handle will be hot.
6. Serve with toasted tortilla crisps and garden salad.
Tips: For added Mexican flavour, top with small dollops of
guacamole to serve. To save time, omit tortilla crisps and include
a small wholegrain dinner roll with each serving.
