GOLDEN WEDGES
Preheat the oven to 200°C. Spread out the potato wedges on a roasting tray, coat in oil, and season. Roast in the hot oven for 30-35 minutes until cooked through and crisping up, shifting halfway. Just before serving toss through ½ the grated Italian-style cheese.
TOASTY SEEDS
Place the sunflower seeds in a pan over a medium heat. Toast for 2-4 minutes until lightly browned, shifting occasionally. Remove from the pan on completion and set aside to cool.
ZESTY CHICKEN
Pat the chicken dry with paper towel and place flat-side down on a cutting board. Place the palm of your non-cutting hand on top of the breast. Using a sharp knife, cut through it horizontally to make two thin breast pieces. Lay the pieces side-by-side and cover with cling wrap. Using a mallet, empty jar, or rolling pin, tenderise them by gently pounding until halved in thickness. Place the chicken breast into a shallow dish and squeeze juice of 1 lemon wedge over to marinade the chicken and set aside for 10-15 minutes This will improve the flavour and ensure the chicken is nice and tender.
SALAD
In a bowl toss together the tomato wedges, rinsed green leaves, Italian-style cheese ribbons and vinegar (to taste), season and set aside.
CHICKY
Return the pan used for the sunflower seeds to a medium heat and fry the marinated chicken for 5-6 minutes per side until golden and cooked through. Remove from the pan on completion.
LIMONE SAUCE
Heat oil and a knob of butter in the pan over medium heat. When the butter starts to foam, add grated garlic, cook for 30-60 seconds until fragrant, then add juice from the remaining lemon wedges and lemon zest. Add the wine, reduce by half and simmer for 2-4 minutes or until slightly thickened. Add the cooked chicken breast and coat evenly. Season to taste and set aside.
