Instructions

Using a blender or food processor, blitz corn chips to resemble a small crumb
-
Add taco seasoning and blitz again to combine

In a separate bowl make an egg wash by combining eggs and water

-
Heat the grill to high, layer chicken in oven proof tray and spray with cooking oil spray.

In a large bowl combine lettuce, corn, onion, cherry tomatoes and capsicum, add lime juice and toss together.
