Cooking Steps

Sweet potato
1

Preheat the oven to 220°C/200°C fan-forced. Cut the kumara (unpeeled) into 1cm chunks. Place the kumara, a drizzle of olive oil and a pinch of salt and pepper onto the oven tray lined with baking paper. Toss to coat, then roast for 20-25 minutes, or until tender. TIP: Cut the kumara to the correct size so it cooks in the allocated time.

Get prepped
2

While the kumara is roasting, thinly slice the cucumber lengthways into matchsticks. Roughly chop the coriander. Juice the lime into a large bowl. Add the garlic aioli and Japanese dressing to the lime juice and stir to combine.

Coat chicken
3

Combine the plain flour and salt in a shallow bowl. In a second shallow bowl, add the egg and whisk with a fork. In a third shallow bowl, combine the sesame seeds, black sesame seeds, panko breadcrumbs and a pinch of salt and pepper. Dip the chicken breast into the flour mixture, followed by the egg, and finally in the sesame breadcrumb mixture. Set aside on a plate.

Cook
4

In a large frying pan, heat enough olive oil to coat the base over a medium-high heat. When the oil is hot, add the crusted chicken breast and cook for 2 minutes on each side, or until golden. Transfer the chicken to an oven tray lined with baking paper and bake for 8-12 minutes, or until cooked through. TIP: The chicken is cooked when it is no longer pink inside.

Slaw
5

While the chicken is baking, add the cucumber and slaw mix to the dressing in the large bowl. Toss well to coat. TIP: Toss the slaw just before serving to keep it crisp.

Serve
6

Divide the sesame-crusted chicken, slaw and kumara between plates. Sprinkle the adult portions with the coriander.
