ROAST BABY POTATOES
Preheat the oven to 200°C. Spread out the halved baby potatoes on a roasting tray, coat in oil, and season. Roast in the hot oven for 30-35 minutes until soft on the inside and golden on the outside, shifting halfway.
ITALIAN STUFFING
In a bowl, combine the reserved sun-dried tomato oil with the Ricotta. Add the chopped, sun-dried tomatoes, three-quarters of the shredded basil, and seasoning to taste. Mix well to combine.
STUFF THE Chicken
Pat the Chicken breast dry with some paper towel and place on a chopping board. Where the breast is slightly thicker, make a small, horizontal incision. Using your fingers or a knife, gently break the flesh apart to make a little pocket for the stuffing.
BAKED Chicken & BROCCOLI
Place the breast on a lightly greased baking tray. Stuff with a tbsp of Italian stuffing, allowing some to spill out. Spread out the broccoli pieces around the Chicken. Coat both the broccoli and chicken in oil and seasoning to taste. Bake in the oven for 18-20 minutes until the broccoli is charred and the chicken is golden and cooked through. Remove from the oven on completion.
DRESS IT UP
In a bowl, combine the wholegrain mustard with the yoghurt and the Italian Rub to taste. Slowly, mix in the red wine vinegar to taste. Add warm water in 5ml increments until drizzling consistency.
SERVE IT UP
Make a generous pile of roast baby potatoes and charred broccoli. Top with the fragrant, stuffed Chicken. Drizzle with the tangy mustard dressing and dollop over any remaining ricotta stuffing. Garnish with the remaining fresh basil and a sprinkle of the grated Italian-style cheese. Enjoy, Chef!
ROAST BABY POTATOES
