Cooking Instructions
Before you start
- Preheat the oven to 240C / fan 220C / gas mark 9
- Line a large baking tray with parchment paper
- Pull out a sieve, a small bowl, a large bowl & a grater
Roast the potatoes
- Cut the potatoes into 3cm chunks. Zest and quarter the lemon
- Place the potatoes on the lined baking tray, toss with half the chilli paste, 1 tsp oil, salt and pepper
- Bake in the oven for 10 mins
Build the bean salad
- Very finely slice the shallot. Finely chop the parsley. Drain and rinse the beans
- Add all to the large bowl
- Add the juice from half the lemon, 1 tbsp oil and a generous pinch of salt and pepper. Toss to combine and set aside
Chicken time
- To butterfly the chicken, carefully slice through one side of each breast from the thickest part to the thinnest, careful not to cut right through to the end. Open out the chicken breasts to resemble a butterfly
- After 10 mins of baking, place the chicken onto the lined baking tray with the potatoes, sprinkle over the lemon zest, drizzle with 1 tsp oil and season with salt and pepper
- Return to the oven for a further 14 mins, until the chicken is cooked through and the potatoes are golden
Make the dressing & finish the bean salad
- Mix together the tamari, remaining chilli paste (or to taste), sundried tomato paste and the half pack of horseradish in the small bowl
- Cut the tomatoes into 2cm wedges, then add to the ben salad, along with the rocket and dressing. Mix well and season with salt and pepper
Plate up
- Check your chicken is cooked through by inserting a skewer into the thickest part of the meat; the juices should run clear
- Once cooked, thinly slice the chicken against the grain
- Serve the bean salad on plates, along with the potatoes. Lay the chicken on top. Drizzle over any chicken cooking juices and serve with the remaining lemon wedges
