Instructions

1

a) Preheat your oven to 240°C/220°C fan/gas mark 9. Heat a drizzle of oil in a frying pan on high heat. Sprinkle with chicken with half the Brazilian style spice mix. Season with salt and pepper.

b) Once the oil is hot, lay the chicken into the pan. TIP: Notice a stronger smell from your chicken? Don’t worry, this is normal due to packaging we use to keep it fresh. Fry until golden, 3-4 mins, then turn and cook for 1 min more. IMPORTANT: Wash your hands and equipment after handling raw chicken and its packaging.

c) Chop the sweet potatoes into 1cm chunks (no need to peel).

2

a) Once fried, transfer the chicken and sweet potato chunks to a baking tray. Roast the chicken on the top shelf of your oven until cooked through, 18-20 mins. IMPORTANT:  The chicken is cooked when no longer pink in the middle.

b) Halve the bell pepper and discard the core and seeds. Chop into 1-2cm chunks. Drain and rinse the chickpeas in a sieve.

3

a) Heat the (now empty) large frying pan on medium-high heat. Add a drizzle more oil if needed. Add the pepper to the pan and stir-fry until softened, 5-6 mins. Add the remaining Brazilian style spice mix. Stir-fry for 1 min.

b) Add the passata, chickpeas, chicken stock paste, water for the sauce and sugar (see pantry for both amounts) to the pepper.

4

a) Bring the sauce to the boil, then simmer gently until the sauce has thickened slightly, 4-5 mins.

5

a) Once the sweet potato has roasted, stir it into the sauce. Add the butter (see pantry for amount).

b) Drizzle the honey (see pantry for amount) over the chicken. Slice the chicken thinly. 

6

a) Divide the chickpeas and sauce between bowls. 

b) Top with the sliced chicken and dollops of soured cream to finish.

Enjoy!
