Cooking Steps

1
1

• Preheat oven to 180°C/160°C fan-forced. • Thinly slice carrot into half-moons. Thinly slice celery. Pick thyme leaves. • Finely chop garlic. Roughly chop pitted mixed olives (see ingredients). • In a medium bowl, combine garlic & herb seasoning, a drizzle of olive oil and a pinch of salt and pepper. Add chicken breast, turning to coat.

• In a large ovenproof pan, heat a drizzle of olive oil over high heat. Cook chicken until browned, 2-3 minutes each side. Transfer to a plate (it will finish cooking in step 3!). • Return the pan to medium-high heat with a drizzle of olive oil. Cook carrot and celery, tossing, until slightly softened, 2-3 minutes. • Add thyme and garlic and cook until fragrant, 1 minute.

• To the pan with the veggies, add crushed & sieved tomatoes, chicken-style stock powder, the brown sugar, olives and the water. Stir to combine. • Return chicken to the pan, placing on top of the stew. • Cover with a lid (or cover tightly with foil). Bake for 20 minutes. • Remove stew from oven. Uncover, then return to the oven and bake until chicken is cooked through (when no longer pink inside), a further 20-25 minutes.

TIP: If you don't have an ovenproof pan, bake the stew in a baking dish instead!

• When the stew has 20 minutes remaining, boil the kettle. Half-fill a large saucepan with boiling water, then add a generous pinch of salt. • Peel potato and cut into large chunks. • Cook potato in the boiling water, over high heat, until easily pierced with a fork, 12-15 minutes. Drain and return to the pan. • Add the milk and half the butter to the potato, then season with salt. Mash until smooth. Cover to keep warm.

TIP: Save time and get more fibre by leaving the potato unpeeled.

• When the stew is ready, remove from oven. • Stir through baby spinach leaves and remaining butter, until spinach is wilted. • Season to taste.

TIP: Add a splash of water if the sauce mixture looks too thick.
