Instructions

Get Started
1

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

Chop the potatoes into 3cm chunks (no need to peel).

Pop onto a large baking tray. Drizzle with oil, sprinkle over the Mexican style spice mix, 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 for 20 mins - you'll roast them for longer once you've crushed them.

Finish the Prep
2

Meanwhile, cut the Intense™ tomato into 1cm chunks. Cut the lime into wedges. Grate the Cheddar cheese.

In a medium bowl, combine the sliced carrot and cabbage mix, olive oil for the dressing (see pantry for amount), a good squeeze of lime juice and half the soured cream.

Season with salt and pepper and mix well. Set aside for later.

Bake the Chicken
3

Lay the chicken onto a baking tray and 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. 

Spread the chipotle all over the chicken with the back of a spoon. Drizzle with oil.

When the potatoes have cooked for 20 mins, remove them from the oven. Lower the oven temperature to 220°C/200°C fan/gas mark 7.

Roast the chicken on the top shelf until cooked through, 25-30 mins. IMPORTANT: Wash your hands and equipment after handling raw chicken and its packaging. The chicken is cooked when no longer pink in the middle.

Smash the Potatoes
4

Meanwhile, use the bottom of a bowl or pan to lightly crush each potato on the baking tray.

Drizzle the smashed potatoes with more oil and place the tray onto the middle shelf of your oven until crispy and golden, 15-20 mins.

Say Cheese
5

When the chicken has 5 mins remaining, drizzle over the BBQ sauce and turn to coat, then return to the oven until sticky and glazed, 5-6 mins.

In the last couple mins, sprinkle the Cheddar cheese over the potatoes until melted, 2-3 mins.

Finish and Serve
6

Once the chicken is cooked, slice widthways into 2cm thick slices and share between your plates. 

Share the smashed potatoes between plates. Drizzle over the remaining soured cream and sprinkle with the chopped tomato

Serve the soured cream slaw alongside and any remaining lime wedges for squeezing over the chicken to finish.
