Cooking Steps

sweet potato
1

Preheat the oven to 220°C/200°C fan-forced. Cut the sweet potato (unpeeled) into 1cm chunks. Place the sweet potato and sesame seeds on an oven tray lined with baking paper, drizzle with olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Roast until tender, 20-25 minutes. TIP: Cut the sweet potato to size so it cooks in time.

prep
2

While the sweet potato is roasting, combine the plain flour and 1/2 the Southeast Asian spice blend in a bowl. Add a drizzle of olive oil, then season with salt and pepper. Add the chicken breast and toss to coat. De-stem and very finely slice the makrut lime leaves. Finely chop the garlic.

Chicken
3

Heat a drizzle of olive oil in a large frying pan over a medium-high heat. Cook the chicken until browned, 2 minutes each side. Transfer to a second oven tray lined with baking paper and bake until cooked through, 6-10 minutes (depending on thickness). Set aside to rest.

dressing
4

Return the frying pan to a medium heat with a drizzle of olive oil (no need to wash out the pan!). Add the garlic, lime leaves and remaining Southeast Asian spice blend and cook until fragrant, 1 minute. Add the coconut milk, soy sauce and brown sugar. Bring to the boil and stir to combine. Simmer until thickened slightly, 3-4 minutes. Remove from the heat. TIP: Add any chicken resting juices to the sauce for extra flavour!

5

Roughly chop the tomato. Thinly slice the cucumber into half-moons. Slice the lemon into wedges. In a medium bowl, combine the tomato, cucumber and mixed salad leaves. Just before serving, drizzle with a little olive oil and a squeeze of lemon juice and toss to coat.

serve
6

Slice the chicken. Divide the salad, sesame sweet potato and chicken between plates. Drizzle with the coconut dressing. Garnish the salad with the crushed peanuts. Serve with the remaining lemon wedges.
