Instructions

Roast the Potatoes
1

Preheat your oven to 220°C/200°C fan/gas mark 7.

Chop the potatoes into 2cm chunks (no need to peel).

Pop the chunks onto a large baking tray. Drizzle with oil, season with salt and pepper, then toss to coat. Spread out in a single layer. TIP: Use two baking trays if necessary.

When the oven is hot, roast on the top shelf until golden, 25-35 mins. Turn halfway through.

Prep the Veg
2

Meanwhile, trim the green beans, then cut into thirds. Peel and grate the garlic (or use a garlic press).

Halve the bell pepper and discard the core and seeds. Cut into 2cm chunks.

Put the pepper onto a baking tray. Drizzle with oil, sprinkle over the garlic, season with salt and pepper, then toss to coat.

Roast on the middle shelf until soft and slightly charred, 14-16 mins. Once charred, remove from the oven and set aside.

Bring on the Beans
3

Heat a drizzle of oil in a large frying pan on medium-high heat.

Once hot, add the green beans and stir-fry until starting to char, 2-3 mins.

Turn the heat down to medium, then add a splash of water and immediately cover with a lid or some foil. Cook until tender, 4-5 mins.

Once cooked, transfer the beans to a medium bowl. Add half the red wine vinegar along with the sugar and olive oil for the dressing (see pantry for both amounts). Season with salt and pepper. Toss to coat, then set aside for now.

Butterfly your Chicken
4

Lay the chicken breast onto your chopping board, place your hand flat on top and slice into it from the side until there's 2cm left (be careful not to slice all the way through). Open it up like a book.

Repeat with the other breast(s) - you've butterflied your chicken! Season with salt and pepper.

Sprinkle the flour (see pantry for amount) onto both sides of the chicken. IMPORTANT: Wash your hands and equipment after handling raw chicken and its packaging.

Fry the Chicken
5

Return the (now empty) frying pan to medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil.

Once hot, lay the butterflied chicken into the pan and season with salt and pepper. Cook until browned and cooked through, 5-6 mins each side.

Once cooked, transfer to a plate to rest for a couple of mins. IMPORTANT: The chicken is cooked when no longer pink in the middle.

Meanwhile, to a blender, add the roasted pepper, smoked paprika, yoghurt, sugar for the sauce (see pantry for amount) and the remaining red wine vinegar. Season with salt and pepper. Blend until smooth. TIP: If you don't have a blender, mix until combined in a small bowl.

Finish and Serve
6

When everything's ready, add the rocket to the bowl of green beans and toss to coat. Cut the chicken widthways into 1cm thick slices.

Spread the romesco style sauce onto a third of your plate. Top with the sliced butterflied chicken

Serve the roasted potatoes and green bean salad alongside.
