Instructions

a) Preheat your oven to 220°C/200°C fan/gas mark 7. Boil a full kettle.

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

c) Pour the boiled water from your kettle into a large saucepan with 0.5 tsp salt on high heat. Add the potatoes to the water and cook until you can easily slip a knife through, 15-18 mins.

d) Peel and grate the garlic (or use a garlic press).

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

b) Season the chicken, then rub in the mixed herbs and half the garlic.

c) Once hot, lay the chicken into the pan and cook until browned, 5 mins each side.

d) Once browned, lay the chicken flat onto a baking tray. Roast on the middle shelf of your oven until browned and cooked through, 15-20 mins. IMPORTANT: Wash your hands and equipment after handling raw chicken and its packaging. It's cooked when no longer pink in the middle.

a) Once the potatoes are cooked, drain in a colander. Return them to the pan, off the heat.

b) Add a knob of butter and a splash of milk (if you have any) and mash until smooth.

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

a) Trim the root and dark green leafy part from the leek and discard. Halve lengthways, then thinly slice.

b) Heat a drizzle of oil in another large saucepan on medium-high heat.

c) Once hot, add the leek and season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until softened, 4-6 mins.

d) Add the remaining garlic and cook for 1 min.

a) Stir the creme fraiche, chicken stock paste and water for the sauce (see pantry for amount) into the leeks. Simmer until thickened, 2-3 mins.

b) Add the spinach to the pan a handful at a time until wilted and piping hot, 1-2 mins.

c) Stir through the hard Italian style cheese until melted. Taste the sauce and season with salt and pepper if needed. Add a splash of water if it's a little too thick.
