Chicken & Creamy Chive Sauce

with Potato Wedges & Garlic Greens

With a delicate onion flavour and vibrant colour, chives make a sauce sing! Our creamy chive sauce over seared chicken breast is packed with flavour, and with roasted potato wedges and garlicky greens on the side, this is a meal that the whole family will love!

Unfortunately, this week's broccolini was in short supply, so we've replaced it with broccoli. Don't worry, the recipe will be just as delicious!

Cooking Steps

ROAST THE POTATOES
1

Preheat the oven to 240°C/220°C fan-forced. Cut the potato (unpeeled) into 1cm wedges. Place the wedges on an oven tray lined with baking paper. Drizzle with olive oil, season with a pinch of salt and pepper and toss to coat. Spread out in a single layer and roast until tender, 25-30 minutes.

TIP: Cut the potato to the correct size so it cooks in the allocated time.

GET PREPPED
2

While the wedges are roasting, cut the broccoli (see ingredients list) into small florets and roughly chop the stalk. Finely chop the garlic (or use a garlic press). Finely chop the chives.

COOK THE CHICKEN
3

Place your hand flat on top of each chicken breast and use a sharp knife to slice through horizontally to make two thin steaks. In a large frying pan, heat a drizzle of olive oil over a medium-high heat. Season the chicken on both sides with salt and pepper and cook until cooked through, 3-5 minutes each side (depending on thickness). Transfer to a plate and cover to keep warm.

TIP: If your pan is getting crowded, cook in batches for the best results! TIP: Chicken is cooked through when it's no longer pink inside.

COOK THE GARLIC GREENS
4

Return the frying pan to a medium-high heat with a drizzle of olive oil if needed. Add the broccoli, season with salt and pepper and cook, tossing, until just tender, 4-5 minutes. Add the garlic and baby spinach leaves and cook until fragrant and wilted slightly, 1 minute. Transfer to a plate and cover to keep warm.

MAKE THE SAUCE
5

Return the frying pan to a medium-low heat and add the pure cream (see ingredients list), chives and chicken stock (1/2 sachet for 2 people / 1 sachet for 4 people). Cook, scraping up any meaty bits from the pan, until slightly thickened, 5-6 minutes. Season to taste with salt and pepper.

TIP: Add any resting juices from the chicken to the sauce for extra flavour!

SERVE UP
6

Thinly slice the chicken. Divide the chicken, potato wedges and garlic greens between plates. Drizzle the creamy chive sauce over the chicken.
