It’s all about creating the right contrasts. Our smoky Mexican spice blend gives the chicken—certified organic, so it’s better for you and the environment—full-bodied flavour. In the pico de gallo, tomatillos take a spot usually reserved for tomatoes, so the lime and cilantro get extra zing. Sour cream adds lushness to the slaw underlying it all.

We will send you:

  • 2 Organic chicken breasts (raised without antibiotics by Canadian farmers)
  • 225g Tomatillos
  • 300g Shredded cabbage
  • 1 Lime
  • 14g Cilantro
  • 50g Diced onions
  • 43ml Sour cream
  • 8g Smoky Mexican Moments spices (smoked paprika, cumin, garlic flakes, coriander, paprika, oregano, black peppercorns, allspice, cloves, cinnamon)
