Home-made SpiceBag Recipe

I love SpiceBags from the Chinese, or I did until I tasted one from my local Chinese who uses bizarre chewy chicken which I don't like.

So I decided to experiment and make my own.
In my opinion, my version was MUCH nicer than the local Chinese.

Also, I really love Country Store Oven Chips, in the blue bag, in Tesco for €1.60..they don't taste like oven chips; they taste like a cross between chipper and Chinese chips and they're my little secret....but I'll share it with ya!

INGREDIENTS:

Some oven chips (I just poured out enough for two on to a baking tray)
1 red pepper, de-seeded and sliced
1 medium onion, sliced and separated
1 red chilli, finely sliced
1/4 packet of Old el Paso Smoky Enchilada Mix Powder AND roughly the same amount of Schwartz Cajun powder, mixed together.
(You can adjust these amounts til you get the right spiciness)
Chicken breast-I used leftover roast chicken breast but you can add any kind of chicken you want.

Remember-you can adjust the amount of ingredients to suit your liking.
Some people might prefer more peppers, less chicken etc.

1)Cook the chips. With these chips, you need to take them out at just the right time-I like when they're golden but not dark.

2)When the chips are almost done, get a pan and add a little oil. Throw in the peppers, onion and chilli. Stir and cook for a few minutes.

3)Add the chicken (if using raw, make sure it's fully cooked before the next step; if using leftover chicken it doesn't need long in the pan), then add your spice mix.

Coat everything thoroughly and when everything looks a little softened (but not too much, you want a bit of texture), remove from the heat.

4) Take the tray of chips out of the oven and throw the pan of chicken/peppers etc over the chips. Mix thoroughly so the chips also get coated. Serve!

I like heat so I added some Old el Paso Jalapeno peppers to my plate too!

We both though it was delicious and actually way nicer than the Chinese!
