Cooking instructions
Instructions for 2 [for 3] [for 4] portion recipe.
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
Deseed your pepper[s] (scrape the seeds and pith out with a teaspoon) and roughly chop into bite-sized pieces
Crush half your garlic clove[s] (you'll use the rest later!) open by squashing with the side of a knife and remove the skin

Cut a piece[s] of tin foil approx. the size of an A3 sheet of paper and lay out
Add the chopped pepper to the middle with the crushed garlic, a drizzle of olive oil and a pinch of salt and pepper
Scrunch the edges of the foil around the pepper to form a sealed parcel[s] and add to one side of a baking tray

Chop your potatoes (skins on) into large, bite-sized pieces
Add the chopped potatoes to other side of the baking tray (or two!) with a drizzle of vegetable oil and a pinch of salt and pepper
Give everything a good mix up and put the tray[s] in the oven for an initial 15 min

Meanwhile, peel and finely chop (or grate) the remaining garlic and chop your parsley finely, including the stalks
Combine your panko breadcrumbs in a bowl with half the chopped parsley, half your ground smoked paprika (you'll use the rest later!), 1 tbsp [1 1/2 tbsp] [2 tbsp] olive oil and a pinch of salt and pepper – this is your herby breadcrumb mixture
Combine the chopped garlic and mayo in a bowl with a pinch of salt and 1 tsp [1 1/2 tsp] [2 tsp] cold water – this is your aioli

Pat your chicken breast portion[s] dry with kitchen paper, then add them to a separate, baking paper-lined baking tray (or two!), and season with a pinch of salt
Spread a dollop of the aioli on each chicken breast and sprinkle the herby breadcrumb mixture on top
Put the tray[s] in the oven for 18-20 min or until the chicken is cooked through (no pink meat!) and the crust is golden – this is your herb-crusted chicken

Once the potatoes & pepper[s] have had an initial 15min, remove the softened pepper[s] from the oven
Return the tray[s] to the oven and cook your potatoes for a further 5-10 min or until golden and crisp
Meanwhile, add the softened pepper, garlic, remaining ground smoked paprika, flaked almonds and a squeeze of your lime juice (save the rest for later!) to a food processor with a pinch of salt and pepper, then blitz until you have a coarse paste – this is your romesco sauce

Wash your spinach, then pat it dry with kitchen paper
Once the potatoes are golden, transfer the potatoes to a pot over a medium heat with the romesco sauce, spinach and the remaining chopped parsley
Give everything a good mix up and cook for 2-3 min or until the spinach has wilted and the sauce has warmed through – these are your romesco potatoes

Slice the remaining lime into 1 wedge per person
Serve the herb-crusted chicken with the romesco potatoes and a dollop of aioli to the side
Garnish with a lime wedge
Enjoy!
