Method

Step 1 of 4

Place tomatoes, stockpot and water into a deep-frying pan over medium heat. Bring to a simmer and stir until dissolves. Stir in chilli con carne seasoning. Add chicken. Bring to the boil, stirring regularly. Cover, reduce heat to medium-low and cook for 25 -30 mins, stirring occasionally, or until chicken is fork tender.

Step 2 of 4

Using tongs transfer chicken to a chopping board. Bring sauce to the rapid simmer over medium high heat and cook, uncovered, stirring occasionally, for 8 mins or until sauce is reduced and slightly thickened. Meanwhile using two forks shred chicken. Stir chicken through reduced sauce.

Step 3 of 4

Combine lime juice and oil in a large bowl. Add coleslaw mix and coriander leaves. Toss to coat. Combine sour cream and jalapenos in a small bowl.

Step 4 of 4

Divide shredded chicken between warmed tortillas. Top with slaw and a dollop of jalapeno sour cream.
