  1. HERB ROAST

    Preheat the oven to 200°C. Pat the chicken dry with paper towel and place in a deep roasting tray with the onion wedges. Coat in oil, the spice & herb mix, and seasoning. Place the potato pieces on a separate roasting tray. Coat in oil and seasoning. Pop both trays in the hot oven and roast for 30-35 minutes, shifting halfway.

  2. TOMATO CHICKEN

    In a bowl, combine the tomato passata, the tomato paste, a sweetener of choice (to taste), 50ml of water, and seasoning. When the chicken has been roasting for 10 minutes, remove the chicken tray from the oven and coat in the tomato mixture. Return to the oven to roast for the remaining time. On completion, the potatoes should be crispy and the chicken should be cooked through.

  3. START THE SPINACH

    When the roast has 10-15 minutes remaining, place a pan over a medium heat with a drizzle of oil. When hot, add the shredded spinach and fry for 2-3 minutes until wilted, shifting occasionally. Remove from the pan, season, and set aside.

  4. CREAMY DREAMINESS

    Return the pan, wiped down if necessary, to a medium heat with a drizzle of oil. When hot, add the diced onion and fry for 3-4 minutes until soft and translucent, shifting occasionally. Add the grated garlic and fry for 30-60 seconds until fragrant, shifting constantly. Add the sautéed spinach and the cream. Simmer for 3-5 minutes until the cream is starting to thicken. Season to taste.

  5. TOMATO CHICKEN TIME!

    Plate up the golden potato chunks. Side with the tomato chicken and the creamy spinach. Sprinkle over the chopped parsley. Well done, Chef!
