Cooking Instructions
Before you start
- Preheat the oven to 220C / fan 200C / gas mark 7
- Line a baking tray with parchment paper
- Bring a saucepan filled with salted water to a boil
- Pull out a sieve & a large bowl
Roast the chicken
- Place the chicken onto the lined baking tray, then rub with 2 tsp oil and the garlic herb paste. Season with salt and pepper
- Roast for 21 mins, until cooked through
Cook the potatoes & green beans
- Add the potatoes to the saucepan and simmer for 18-20 mins, until soft
- Trim the green beans and add to the saucepan for the final 2-3 mins of cooking
- Drain together, then run under cold water and set aside to cool
Dressing time
- Finely chop or crush the garlic
- In the large bowl, combine the garlic, vinegar, nutritional yeast, yoghurt, mustard and 2 tsp oil. Mix until smooth and season with salt and pepper
Build the salad
- Trim the lettuce, then thinly slice lengthways into thin wedges. Halve the tomatoes. Finely chop the chives (save half for garnish). Halve the cooked potatoes
- Add everything to the dressing bowl, along with the green beans. Toss to combine
Finish & 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, then toss half through the salad
- Share the salad between plates, topped with the remaining chicken. Garnish with the remaining chives
