Ingredients

Method

1) Add the olive oil to a medium saute pan over medium to high heat, and add the onions, red peppers, jalapeno pepper, potatoes, garlic and chicken. Saute until the chicken is cooked and the vegetables are soft. Add the oregano and cumin and season with salt and pepper, to taste.

2) Deglaze the pan with the tequila and the lime juice and leave to simmer until the liquid is almost evaporated. Remove from the heat. Shred the chicken with 2 forks and allow to cool. Stir in the coriander.

4) In large cast iron skillet, heat 1cm of rapoeseed oil to 180C. Add the rolls to the hot oil, placing seam side down. Cook for 2 minutes or until golden brown and then turn to the other side.

5) Remove the rolls from the pan when cooked and drain on kitchen paper. Remove the cocktail sticks and serve with the guacamole and salsa.
