    Method

    1. Cook the oven chips in an air-fryer for 6 mins at 200°C. Add the chicken tenders, reduce the heat to 180°C and continue to cook for 12 mins, shaking the tray regularly.
    2. Meanwhile, heat 1 tbsp vegetable oil in a frying pan. Add the onion and soften for 5 mins. Add the peppers and fry for another 3 mins, stirring regularly. Add the cooked chips and chicken, with the whites from the spring onions, and toss well. Scatter over the Chinese five spice, garlic salt and ground black pepper, followed by the rice wine vinegar.
    3. Cook for a further 2-3 mins, stirring in an extra ½ tbsp oil if it seems dry, until well coated. Tip into a paper bag (or onto baking paper) with the spring onion greens. Serve with the chip shop curry sauce (optional), heated to pack instructions, to dip into.
