Instructions

1

Pre-heat your oven to 220 degrees. Cut the sweet potato in half lengthways. Chop each half lengthways again, into long wedges about the size of your index finger. Tip: No need to peel!

Roast wedges.
2

Put your wedges on a baking tray, drizzle over some olive oil and add a pinch of salt and a good grind of black pepper. Put them on the top shelf of your oven for 25mins, or until they are nice and crispy.

3

In a bowl mix together the crème fraîche, the smoked paprika (add a bit less if you don’t like paprika!), the garlic salt and the turmeric.

Coat chicken in creme fraiche.
4

Coat each chicken breast in your crème fraîche mixture, then roll each chicken breast in the breadcrumbs to thoroughly coat them. Cook your chicken on a baking tray on the middle shelf of your oven for 20 mins. Tip: The chicken is cooked when it is no longer pink in the middle.

Prepare salad veg.
5

Cut the cherry tomatoes in half and slice the baby gem lettuce. Mix them together with a drizzle of olive oil and a pinch of salt and pepper. Use your hands to toss your salad.

6

To get a really crunchy topping, you can grill your chicken for a few mins at the end. Like all meat, chicken is best when rested. Once your chicken is cooked, take it out of your oven and leave it for a few mins. This will allow all the juices inside to redistribute throughout the meat.

7

Serve your chicken with a side order of sweet potato wedges and a bit of salad for garnish. Not so naughty and very, very nice!
