Instructions

Cook the Chicken
1
  • Preheat your oven to 220°C/200°C fan/gas mark 7.
  • Season the chicken with salt and pepper.
  • Wrap the chicken breast with the bacon strips.
  • Pop the chicken into an oven dish, seam-side down.
  • Roast on the top shelf until cooked through, 25-30 mins. IMPORTANT: Wash hands after handling raw meat and its packaging.

TIP: Notice a stronger smell from your chicken? Don’t worry, this is normal due to packaging we use to keep it fresh.

Roast the Veg
2
  • Meanwhile, trim the carrot and halve lengthways. Cut into 1cm wide, 5cm long batons.
  • On a lined baking tray toss with salt, pepper and a drizzle of oil.
  • Roast on the middle shelf of the oven until tender, 20-25 mins. Turn the tray halfway through.
Make the Mash
3
  • Meanwhile, peel and chop the potatoes into 2cm chunks. 
  • Place in a pot, cover with water and season with salt.
  • Bring to the boil and cook until fork tender, 12-18 mins.
  • Once cooked, drain in a colander (reserving a little cooking water) and return to the pot, off the heat.
  • Add a knob of butter and a splash of milk or cooking water. Mash until smooth. Season with salt and pepper. Cover to keep warm.
4
  • Mix passata, thyme, stock, Worcester sauce and ¼ tsp sugar (per 2P) in a bowl.
  • Drain and roughly tear the mozzarella.
  • When the chicken has cooked for 25-30 mins, remove from the oven (be careful—the oven dish is hot), pour the tomato sauce over the chicken and scatter the mozzarella over the top.
  • Return to the top shelf of the oven until cheese has melted, 12-15 mins. IMPORTANT: Chicken is cooked when no longer pink in the middle.
5
  • Meanwhile, roughly chop the parsley (stalks and all).
  • Once the carrots are cooked, toss together with the honey.
6
  • Divide the creamy mash and honeyed carrots between plates.
  • Serve your chicken alongside, drizzling any sauce remaining in the dish over the top.
  • Finish with a scattering of parsley.
