Cooking Steps

Bake the sweet potato fries
1

* Preheat oven to 240°C/220°C fan-forced. Cut potato into fries. Thinly slice pear (see ingredients). * Place potato on a lined oven tray. Drizzle with olive oil, season with salt and toss to coat. * Bake until tender, 20-25 minutes. TIP: If your oven tray is crowded, divide between two trays.

Cook the chicken
2

* Meanwhile, combine chicken tenderloin, garlic & herb seasoning, a pinch of salt and a drizzle of olive oil in a medium bowl. • In a large frying pan, heat a drizzle of olive oil over medium-high heat.
• Cook chicken tenderloins until browned and cooked through, 3-4 minutes each side. Transfer to a plate, cover and rest for 5 minutes.
TIP: Chicken is cooked through when it is no longer pink inside. TIP: The spice blend will char slightly in the pan, this adds to the flavour!

Make the sauce
3

* Wipe out and return pan to medium heat. Add light cooking cream, stock concentrate and a splash of water, and simmer until slightly thickened, 2-3 minutes. * Remove pan from heat, and stir in baby spinach leaves until wilted, 30 seconds. Season with a pinch of pepper.

Finish & serve
4

* In a medium bowl, combine pear, mixed salad leaves, a drizzle of olive oil and white wine vinegar. Season to taste. * Divide garlicky chicken, potato fries and pear salad between plates. Top chicken with creamy spinach sauce.
