Cooking instructions
Instructions for 2 [for 3] [for 4] portion recipe.
Before you start cooking, take your chicken out of the fridge, open the packet and let it air
Preheat the oven to 220°C/ 200°C (fan)/ gas 7
Chop your sweet potato[es] (skin on) into large, bite-sized pieces
Deseed your pepper[s] (scrape the seeds and pith out with a teaspoon) and cut into thick strips
Add the chopped sweet potato and pepper strips to a baking tray with the ground smoked paprika and a drizzle of vegetable oil
Season with a pinch of salt and pepper and give everything a good mix up
Put the tray in the oven for 20-25 min or until the potatoes are cooked through and the pepper has charred slightly – this is your roasted sweet potato & pepper
Meanwhile, heat a large, wide-based pan (preferably non-stick) over medium-high heat
Pat your chicken thighs dry and season them generously on both sides with salt
Once hot, add the seasoned chicken thighs, skin-side down and cook for 10-15 min or until the skins have browned and crisped
While the chicken is cooking, add your honey to a bowl with your sriracha (can't handle the heat? Go easy!) and chilli flakes (not a fan of spice? Just add a little!) – this is your hot honey
Wash your lettuce, then pat it dry with kitchen paper and roughly chop
Combine your white wine vinegar and your mayo with a generous grind of black pepper – this is your creamy dressing
Once the chicken has browned, turn the chicken thighs skin side up and add the hot honey
Cook them for a further 6 min or until cooked through (no pink meat!) – this is your hot honey chicken
Serve the hot honey chicken over the chopped lettuce with the roasted sweet potato & pepper and any remaining sauce from the pan
Drizzle the creamy dressing all over
Enjoy!
