Let's Cook!

Chop the onion finely and fry it in olive oil in a large oven-safe pan until golden. Once the onions are browned, add the shredded chicken, passata, beans and all the spices and mix thoroughly. Allow to cook for about 10 minutes to allow the flavours to combine nicely.

Notes

Beans - You don't necessarily have to use kidney beans. You can substitute them with black beans, or even add canned corn.

Cheese - I like to use grated mozzarella or cheddar cheese. But it's up to you what cheese you prefer and what you ultimately choose.

Chilli powder - We like spicy food at home, but if you are cooking for the whole family and the kids don't need spicy food, you can skip the chilli without regrets. The result will still be delicious!
