2. Pour the chicken stock on top of the marinaded chicken. Cook for 8-10 minutes before covering with foil to create a tight seal. Return to the oven and reduce the heat to 150ºC, for 2hrs.

3. Brush the tortillas both sides with oil and cut into triangles. Lay evenly on greaseproof paper, bake until they start gaining colour (as they will be baked again just before serving).

4. Shred the cooked chicken with two forks in a bowl. Pour in the remaining juices from the oven dish and combine.

5. Tip the tortilla chips on to a greaseproof lined baking tray, scatter over the pulled chicken and then top with a layer of mozzarella cheese.

to brown.
