Why this works
A fairly balanced, protein-rich meal with moderate carbohydrates and fat; the peppers and tomatoes add useful fibre and micronutrients, though the peri-peri seasoning and tortillas can push sodium and refined carbohydrate higher depending on the brand.
High-quality protein. Chicken and eggs provide a substantial amount of complete protein, supporting muscle repair and satiety.
Vitamin C and antioxidants. Red and green peppers plus tomatoes contribute vitamin C and carotenoids, which support immune function and antioxidant protection.
Sodium caution. Peri-peri chicken and tortillas can add meaningful sodium, so the total may be higher if the chicken is pre-marinated or the wraps are salted.
Method
- Slice the red pepper, green pepper and tomatoes into small pieces.
- Cut the peri peri chicken breast into strips and cook in a hot pan until heated through.
- Add the peppers and tomatoes and cook for 5-6 minutes until softened.
- Warm the tostadas if using.
- Fry the eggs in a separate pan until the whites are set.
- Top each tostada with the chicken and pepper mixture, then finish with a fried egg.
- Serve immediately.
