Instructions

Prep the Carrots
1

a) Preheat your oven to 240°C/220°C fan/gas mark 9. 

b) Boil a full kettle.

c) Trim the carrots and parsnips (no need to peel). Chop into roughly 1cm wide, 5cm long batons.

d) Pop the carrots and parsnips onto a large baking tray. Drizzle with oil, season with salt and pepper, then toss to coat. Spread out in a single layer.

Get the Mash On
2

a) When the oven is hot, roast the carrots and pabrsnips on the middle shelf until tender, 24-22 mins. Turn halfway through. 

b) Meanwhile, chop the potatoes into 2cm chunks (peel first if you prefer). Peel the garlic cloves. 

c) Pour the boiling water into a large saucepan with ½ tsp salt for the potatoes.

d) Add the potatoes and whole garlic cloves to the water and cook until you can easily slip a knife through, 15-18 mins.

Make your Red Wine Jus
3

a) While the potatoes cook, pour the water for the jus (see pantry for amount) into a small saucepan, bring to the boil on high heat.

b) Stir in the red wine jus paste, then reduce the heat to medium-high. TIP: If your red wine jus paste has hardened, put the sachet in a bowl of hot water for 1 min to loosen.

c) Allow the sauce to bubble and thicken, stirring regularly, 6-7 mins.

d) Meanwhile, grate the cheese.

Cook the Chicken
4

a) Heat a drizzle of oil in a large frying pan on high heat. Once hot, lay the chicken into the pan. Season with salt and pepper. TIP: Notice a stronger smell from your chicken? Don’t worry, this is normal due to packaging we use to keep it fresh

b) Fry until golden, 3-4 mins, then turn and cook for 1 min more.

c) Transfer the chicken to a baking tray, skin-side up. Roast the chicken on the top shelf of your oven until cooked through, 12-15 mins. IMPORTANT: Wash your hands and equipment after handling raw chicken and its packaging. It's cooked when no longer pink in the middle.

Hey Honey
5

a) When the carrots and parsnips have 5 mins left, drizzle over the honey. Turn to coat. Return to the oven for the remaining time. TIP: If your honey has hardened, put the sachet in a bowl of hot water for 1 min to loosen.

b) Once the potatoes and garlic are cooked, drain in a colander and return to the pan, off the heat.

c) Add the cheese, a splash of milk (if you have any) and butter (see pantry for amount) and mash until smooth.

d) Season with salt and pepper. Cover with a lid to keep warm.

Slice and Serve
6

a) Once rested, slice the chicken into 1cm thick slices and share between your plates.

b) Serve the cheesy garlic mash, roasted carrots and parsnips on the side.

c) Pour over the red wine jus to finish.
