Slow-cooked chipotle chicken

Our slow-cooked chipotle chicken takes inspiration from great Mexican flavours to create an uncomplicated one-pot dinner. The star is the flavour of chipotle, which is a smoke-dried jalapeño chilli and a Mexican staple. Obviously we’ve thrown in guacamole for a side, because – well, who doesn’t like guacamole?

Check out our Mexican burrito bowls recipe too for another crowd pleasing dinner.
