400 g canned diced tomatoes
1 pot Continental Stock Pot Sensations Chicken Stock Pot
1/4 cup boiling water
1 sachet Continental Recipe Base Chilli Con Carne
750 g chicken thigh fillets
2 tablespoons lime juice or lemon juice
1 tablespoon oil
300 g packet finely shredded coleslaw mix
1/3 cup chopped coriander leaves
1/2 cup light sour cream
2 tablespoons chopped pickled jalapenos
8 wholegrain tortilla, warmed

Place tomatoes, stockpot and water into a deep-frying pan over medium heat. Bring to a simmer and stir until dissolves. Stir recipe base. 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.
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.
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.
Divide shredded chicken between warmed tortillas. Top with slaw and a dollop of jalapeno sour cream.
