Cooking instructions

Instructions for 2 [for 3] [for 4] portion recipe.

1.

Preheat the oven to 220°C/ 200°C (fan)/ gas 7 and take your chicken out of the fridge, open the packet and let it air

Take 30g [45g] [60g] butter out of the fridge and set aside to soften

Cover your chicken breast portion[s] with cling film and bash with a rolling pin until evenly flattened – this is your chicken escalope

Step 1
2.

Peel and chop your sweet potato[es] into small bite-sized pieces

Slice your spring onion[s] finely

Slice half your green chilli[es] into rounds and set aside for garnish, then chop the remaining chilli finely, removing the seeds

Trim your green beans

Step 2
3.

Boil a full kettle

Combine your panko breadcrumbs with your ground smoked paprika and a pinch of salt and pepper – these are your smokey breadcrumbs

Combine 20g [30g] [40g] of the softened butter with your BBQ sauce and season with a pinch of salt – this is your BBQ butter

Step 3
4.

Add the chicken escalope[s] to a baking paper-lined baking tray (or two!)

Spread the BBQ butter evenly over the chicken, then top with the smokey breadcrumbs and reserve the bowl

Put the tray[s] in the oven for 20 min or until cooked through and golden (no pink meat!) – this is your BBQ butter chicken

Step 4
5.

Whilst the chicken is in the oven, add the chopped sweet potato to a pot with plenty of boiled water and bring to the boil over a high heat

Once boiling, reduce the heat to medium and cook for 12-15 min or until fork-tender, once done, drain and return to the pot to steam dry

Reboil half a kettle

Step 5
6.

Add the chopped green chilli, sliced spring onion and your white wine vinegar to the reserved bowl with 1/2 tbsp [1 tbsp] [1 1/2 tbsp] olive oil

Season with a pinch of salt and sugar and give everything a good mix up – this is your green chilli dressing

Step 6
7.

Add your trimmed green beans to a pot, cover them with boiled water (just enough to cover them) with a pinch of salt

Bring to the boil over a high heat and cook for 5-6 min or until tender

Return the potatoes to a low heat with the remaining butter and a splash of milk

Season with a generous pinch of salt and mash until smooth – this is your sweet potato mash

Step 7
8.

Serve the BBQ butter chicken with the green beans and sweet potato mash to the side

Drizzle the green chilli dressing over the green beans and garnish with the chilli rounds – these are your chilli greens

Tip: Cooking for kids? Leave the dressing and chilli rounds!

Enjoy!
