Instructions
Preheat your oven to 200°C. Chop the potato into 2cm cubes (no need to peel). Pick the rosemary leaves from their stalks and finely chop (discard the stalks). Finely chop the walnuts.
Put the potato on a baking tray, add a good splash of olive oil, half the rosemary, a pinch of salt and a grind of black pepper. Roast on the top shelf of your oven for 25-30 mins until crunchy and delicious.
Place your hand flat on top of one of the chicken breasts and slice into it from the side so it opens like a book. Repeat for all breasts. TIP: This is called ‘butterflying’ and speeds up the cooking time.
Rub a little olive oil into each chicken breast. In a mixing bowl, combine the panko breadcrumbs, remaining rosemary and walnuts. Season with salt and black pepper. Place the butterflied chicken breasts on another baking tray. Spoon some of the herby crumb mixture onto each chicken breast and press it into the meat.
Put the chicken on the middle shelf of your oven. Bake for 15-20 mins. TIP: The chicken is cooked when it is no longer pink in the middle. Once cooked, turn your grill to medium-high and grill the chicken for a further minute to make it extra crunchy.
In a mixing bowl, drizzle the balsamic vinegar and a glug of olive oil over the salad leaves and toss gently. Serve your chicken with crispy potatoes and salad on the side. Enjoy!
