Cooking Instructions

The protein cooking time listed in this recipe has been updated.

As of December 2025, we’ve revised cooking times for all our proteins to reflect improved food safety guidance.

Check out the latest recommended times in our Cooking Guidelines.

  1. Preheat the oven to 240C / fan 220C / gas mark 9. Halve the aubergines and drizzle with 1 tbsp oil and season with sea salt. Place on a lined baking tray and roast for 25-30 mins, until soft.
  2. Halve the potatoes and radishes lengthways and add to another lined baking tray. Peel and halve the onion. Cut one half into wedges and add to the tray. Drizzle over 1 tbsp oil, season with sea salt and black pepper and roast for 25-30 mins. With the remaining onion, make a quick pickle. Finely dice the half onion and add to a small bowl with the vinegar. Leave to pickle.
  3. Heat a medium frying pan with 1 tbsp oil on a high heat. Cook the chicken breasts for 2-3 mins on each side until golden brown, then add to the baking tray with the potatoes and cook for a further 15-20 mins. Check your chicken is cooked through by inserting a skewer into the thickest part of the meat; the juices should run clear. Cook for longer if necessary then leave to rest.
  4. Finely chop the roasted aubergines until almost mashed. Add to a bowl and mix with the yoghurt; season with sea salt and black pepper.
  5. Boil a kettle. Place the sugar snaps in a saucepan and cover with lightly salted boiling water. Boil for 2-3 mins or until cooked with a slight bite. Drain then season with sea salt and black pepper.
  6. Spread the aubergine over plates and top with the potatoes, radishes and sugar snaps. Slice the chicken and place alongside. Garnish with the pickled onion and drizzle over a little vinegar to serve.
