  1. PARTIALLY ROASTED

    Preheat the oven to 200°C. Place the chicken pieces on a roasting tray, coat in oil and seasoning. Roast in the hot oven for 15 minutes until browned slightly but not cooked through.

  2. STEAMY SWEET POT

    Boil the kettle. Place a pot over a medium-high heat with 3-4cm of boiling water covering the base. Once steaming, place the sweet potato and carrot chunks in a colander over the pot. Cover and allow to steam for 15-20 minutes until cooked through and soft. Alternatively, use a steamer if you have one.

  3. CHICKEN CACCIATORE

    Place a pot over medium heat with a drizzle of oil. When hot, fry the quartered mushrooms and diced onions for 5-6 until the onions are soft and the mushrooms are turning golden. Add the grated garlic and Italian Rub and fry for 1-2 minutes until fragrant. Stir through the red wine (if using) and reduce until almost evaporated. Add the cooked chopped tomato, 40ml of water, and roasted chicken pieces and simmer for 12-15 minutes until the chicken is cooked through and the sauce is thickening. In the final 2-3 minutes add the drained chopped olives and ½ of the chopped parsley. Remove from the heat and season with some salt, pepper and a sweetener of choice.

  4. MASH IT UP!

    Put the sweet potato and carrot in a bowl, pop a knob of butter or coconut oil (optional) and add a splash of milk or water. Mash with a fork or potato masher until desired consistency and season to taste.

  5. WARM UP THE BELLY!

    Plate up the mash, dish up some saucy chicken cacciatore on the side, scatter over the chopped pickled peppers and garnish with the remaining parsley. Enjoy Chef!
