CHICKEN TOSTADAS

Steps:

• To make the tortillas: Pour the oil for frying into a large heavy-bottomed pot to a depth of about 2 inches. Place over medium heat and heat to 375 degrees F. Add the tortillas, one at a time, and fry until golden brown and crispy, about 1 1/2 minutes. Using tongs, transfer to a paper towel-lined pan and sprinkle with salt. Set aside.
• To make the chicken: In a small bowl, mix together the chicken, lime juice, oil, coriander, and salt and season with pepper to taste. Cover with plastic wrap and set aside.
• To assemble the tostadas: Preheat the broiler. Spread the beans evenly over one side of each tortilla and sprinkle with some of the cheese. Transfer to a baking sheet and broil until the cheese is lightly browned and melted, about 30 seconds. Divide the tortillas among 6 plates.
• Evenly mound the chicken on each tortilla and top with the lettuce. Top each tostada with avocado, salsa, and a dollop of sour cream. Sprinkle with the scallion and garnish the tostada with the coriander leaves. Serve immediately.
• Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the onion, coriander, and cumin and cook, stirring, until lightly browned, about 2 minutes. Add the garlic and cook, until lightly browned, about 1 minute more. Add the beans and cook, stirring frequently, until thick and amber brown in color, about 4 minutes. Stir in the salt and season with pepper to taste.
• In a small bowl, mix together the tomatoes, onion, jalapeno, coriander, salt, and season with pepper to taste. Cover with plastic wrap and set aside.

CRISPY CHICKEN MEATBALLS

Steps:

• In a large bowl, combine 1 cup panko, the milk, egg, garlic powder and 1 teaspoon salt. Stir together and let sit for 5 minutes.
• Add the chicken and 3/4 cup Parmesan. Stir with your hands until combined, avoiding overmixing. Roll into 24 balls about the size of a golf ball (about 2 tablespoons each) and place on a sheet pan or plate. In a medium bowl, stir together the remaining ¾ cup panko and ¼ cup Parmesan. Toss each meatball in the panko-cheese mixture, pressing gently to adhere. (To avoid a big mess, designate one "wet hand" for touching the meatballs and one "dry hand" for tossing in the panko.) Refrigerate for 5 minutes.
• In a large (12-inch) skillet, heat 2 tablespoons butter and 1 tablespoon oil over medium. When foaming, add half the meatballs. Cook, turning often and reducing the heat if needed to prevent burning, until golden brown and cooked through, 7 to 10 minutes. Transfer to a plate.
• Reduce the heat to medium-low and remove any dark oil or loose panko from the skillet with a spoon or paper towel. (The skillet will be hotter at this point, so reducing the heat ensures even cooking for both batches.) Add the remaining 2 tablespoons butter and 1 tablespoon oil. When foaming, add the remaining meatballs and cook, turning often, until golden brown and cooked through, 7 to 10 minutes. Transfer to the plate.

CRISPY ORANGE CHICKEN

• Transfer chicken thighs to a roasting rack. Bake for about 20 minutes or until center reaches 165°F.
• Keep about 1 tablespoon oil in skillet. Turn on heat over medium high. Stir in orange mixture and boil until thick.
• Pour orange mixture over chicken thighs.
• Use sliced orange, parsley (or cilantro) for garnish.
• Serve immediately.

CRISPY CHICKEN & PINEAPPLE TACOS

Steps:

• Remove the skin from the chicken and set the skin aside. Slice the chicken into strips. Toss in a bowl with the paprika, ground coriander, 2 tbsp of the olive oil and a good pinch of salt. Cover and leave to marinate for at least 1 hr or up to 24 hrs.
• For the salsa, cut the pineapple down the length, cut out the core, then cut the flesh into small cubes. Toss in a bowl with the red onion, chilli, coriander and lime juice.
• Heat the remaining oil in a non-stick frying pan. Season the chicken skin with salt and fry over a high heat for 3-5 mins on each side until golden brown and crisp. Set aside on a plate lined with kitchen paper. Tip the marinated chicken into the pan and fry over medium-high heat for 10-12 mins, turning halfway through.
• Mix the mayo, soured cream and chipotle paste together in a bowl. Mash the avocado with the lime juice and some seasoning in another bowl.
