Cooking Steps

1

Preheat the oven to 200°C/180°C fan-forced. To prepare the ingredients, halve the chicken thighs and cut the sweet potatoes into fries (unpeeled). Peel and grate the carrot. Finely slice the spring onions and finely shred the red cabbage. Juice the lemon.

2

Place the chicken thighs, plain flour, baking powder, Cajun spice mix (caution: spicy!) and a generous seasoning of salt and pepper in a plastic bag and shake to coat the chicken thighs. Place on an oven tray lined with baking paper and spray or brush the chicken lightly with some olive oil. Place the sweet potato on another lined oven tray and toss in the olive oil. Season with salt and pepper. Place both trays in the oven for 25-30 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through and the sweet potato is tender. Swap the trays halfway through to ensure even cooking.

3

Meanwhile, in a large bowl combine the red cabbage, carrot and spring onion. In a small bowl combine the lemon juice, yoghurt, and Dijon mustard. Stir the yoghurt dressing through the coleslaw mix. Season generously with salt and pepper.

4

To serve, divide the crispy chicken, sweet potato fries and the healthy coleslaw between plates and dig in!
