Cypriot-Style Stuffed Free Range Chicken With Oregano Potatoes

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

Chop your potatoes (skins on) into bite-sized pieces, then add them to a baking tray (or two!) with your oregano, a drizzle of vegetable oil and a generous pinch of salt and pepper

Give everything a good mix up and put the tray[s] in the oven for 20-25 min or until golden and crisp – these are your oregano potatoes

Meanwhile, peel and finely chop (or grate) your garlic

Crumble your Greek cheese into small bite-sized pieces

Chop your parsley finely, including the stalks

Combine the chopped garlic, crumbled Greek cheese and chopped parsley with your balsamic sun-dried tomato paste in a bowl

Season with a pinch of salt and pepper – this is your sun-dried tomato stuffing

Use a sharp knife to cut a deep pocket along the side of your free range chicken breast portion[s] (be careful not to cut all the way through!)

Open the chicken out like a book and fill the pocket[s] with the sun-dried tomato stuffing, then press firmly to seal the chicken – this is your stuffed chicken

Heat a large, wide-based pan (preferably non-stick) with a drizzle of olive oil over a high heat

Once hot, add the stuffed chicken with a pinch of salt and pepper and cook for 3 min on each side or until lightly browned

Transfer the browned chicken to a baking paper-lined baking tray

Put the tray in the oven for 12-14 min or until the chicken is cooked through (no pink meat!) and the juices run clear – this is your Cypriot-style stuffed free range chicken

Trim, then add your green beans to a pot and 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 3-4 min or until tender

Once tender, drain and return to the pot with a knob of butter and a pinch of salt – these are your buttered green beans
