Ingredients
  

  • 600 grams chicken breast sliced
  • 4 white potatoes skin on
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 2 tbsp Mingle seasoning blend from Coles/Woolworths
  • 2 tsp olive oil
  • 1 cup red cabbage finely sliced
  • 1 Lebanese cucumber diced
  • 1 carrot grated
  • 1 red capsicum diced
  • 1 tbsp sesame seeds
  • 1 tbsp apple cider vinegar
  • 1 tbsp natural yoghurt
  • sea salt & pepper to taste
  • fresh mint leaves (optional, chopped to garnish)

Instructions
 

  • Pre-heat oven to 200 degrees celsius. Scrub potatoes clean (if necessary) and slice them in half lengthways. Pop them in a boiling pot of water with skin on and par boil for 10 minutes. Remove and strain, then place on to a lined baking tray, smash them flat with a potato masher, drizzle with olive oil and lots of salt & pepper. Pop them in to a pre-heated oven until they are browned and crispy – approx. 10 minutes.
  • While potatoes are cooking, slice chicken in to desired stripe size, cover well with a tbsp of olive oil and 2 tbsp of Mingle (or homemade spice) seasoning.
  • In a medium pan, add olive oil and then pan fry chicken breasts. Cook both sides, until chicken is cooked through.
  • In a large bowl combine cabbage, carrot, cucumber and capsicum together – this is your slaw mix. Save time by buying a pre packed Slaw Kit from Coles/Woolworths.
  • Drizzle with 1 tsp olive oil, yoghurt, tbsp of apple cider vinegar, salt and pepper and combine well. Top with sesame seeds and fresh mint & coriander (optional). Split between four plates/bowls.
  • Remove smashed potatoes from oven and divide among 4 plates.
  • Top with grilled chicken strips, fresh herbs (as desired) and season with salt and pepper if required.

Notes

TIME SAVER TIP
Grab the pre-packed coleslaw/kale slaw from the fresh food fridge section at Coles/Woolworths and our dressing suggestion instead of the packet dressing.
