Spiced Chicken and Eggs with Avocado Yoghurt and Tajín Butter

This Spiced Chicken and Eggs with Avocado Yoghurt and Tajín Butter from OcadoLife food editor Lauren Hoffman is a Mexican-inspired riff on Turkish eggs – layers of spiced chicken mince and toasted corn finished with Tajín butter, a punchy chilli-lime-salt seasoning that’s everywhere right now, adding a bright, tangy kick to fruit, grilled meat and even cocktails.

Ingredients

  • 1 avocado, flesh scooped out
  • 250g Greek-style yoghurt
  • 1 lime, juiced, plus a splash
  • 1 tbsp olive oil, plus 2 tsp
  • 2 corn-on-the-cobs, kernels sliced off
  • 500g chicken mince
  • 1 tsp fajita seasoning
  • 20g unsalted butter
  • 2 tsp Tajín seasoning
  • 4 eggs
  • 1 handful coriander, leaves picked
  • 4 warmed corn tacos, to serve (optional)

Method

  • Step 1

    In a food processor, blitz the avocado and yoghurt with the juice of ½ lime and some seasoning until smooth. Set aside. Bring a pan of water to the boil for the eggs, then reduce to a gentle simmer.

  • Step 2

    Heat 1 tbsp oil in a large pan and fry the corn kernels over medium-high heat for 10 mins (approx.) until toasted and golden. Remove to a plate and cover with foil to keep warm.

  • Step 3

    Add 1 tsp oil to the same pan and cook the chicken mince for 5 mins, breaking it up as you go. Add the fajita seasoning, plus a little salt and pepper, and cook for a further 5 mins until golden. Squeeze over the juice of ½ lime.

  • Step 4

    Meanwhile, gently melt the butter in a small pan until just starting to brown. Remove from the heat; stir in the remaining 1 tsp oil and the Tajín.

  • Step 5

    Poach the eggs in the simmering water with a splash of lime juice for 3 mins, until the whites are just set.

  • Step 6

    Spoon the avocado yoghurt onto plates and top with the chicken, toasted corn and a poached egg. Drizzle over the Tajín butter, scatter with coriander leaves and serve straight away with warm tacos, if you like.
