Heat the oven to 220°C, or 200°C fan. Toss the potato chips with 1 tablespoon of the oil and a pinch of salt, then spread them out on a large baking tray.
Bake the chips for 30–35 minutes, turning halfway, until crisp and golden.
Meanwhile, heat the remaining oil in a large frying pan. Add the onion and cook for 4 minutes until softened, then stir in the garlic.
Add the chicken, Cajun seasoning, black pepper and the remaining salt. Cook for 8–10 minutes, stirring often, until the chicken is cooked through and lightly browned.
Scatter the cooked Cajun chicken over the chips and cover with the grated Cheddar. Return the tray to the oven for 3–4 minutes, until the cheese has melted.
Top with soured cream and spring onions, then serve straight from the tray.
