  2. Fry the strips in a hot pan for 3–4 minutes a side, without crowding them, until they are coloured and cooked through. Let them rest 2 minutes.

  3. Warm the rice and the drained beans through, and drain the sweetcorn.

Serving suggestion

A spoon of Greek yogurt in place of sour cream keeps it light.

Notes

Brown rice or cauliflower rice both swap in without changing the method.
