Panko Crusted Chicken Breast
with sweet potato champ mash
Champ is a traditional Irish dish but in this recipe it's made with a twist, using sweet potatoes instead of the more commonly used potato. The jazzed-up champ accompanies crispy coated chicken and a crisp salad for a colourful, nutritious and tasty plate.

Instructions
- Boil a large pot of salted water for the potatoes.
- Chop the potatoes into 2cm chunks. Trim and thinly slice the scallion.
- When the water is boiling, add the potatoes and cook until fork tender, 15-20 mins.
- Once cooked, drain in a colander and return to the pot, off the heat.
- Add a knob of butter and a splash of milk or water. Mash until smooth. Add the sliced scallion, then season with salt and pepper. Cover to keep warm.
- Cut the tomato into 2cm chunks.
- Season the breadcrumbs with salt and pepper.
- Place a hand on top of the chicken. Slice from thick end to thin point until there's 2cm left. Open it up like a book. IMPORTANT: Wash hands and equipment after handling raw chicken and its packaging.
TIP: Notice a stronger smell from your chicken? Don’t worry, this is normal due to packaging used to keep it fresh.
- Season the chicken with salt and pepper.
- Spread mayo over the chicken until completely coated.
- Press the breasts into the breadcrumbs, covering all sides to achieve an even crust.
- Place a large pan over medium-high with a glug of oil.
- Add the chicken and fry until brown, crispy and cooked through, 3-6 mins on each side. IMPORTANT: Chicken is cooked when no longer pink in the middle.
- Return the pan to medium-high heat with a knob of butter.
- When melted, add the demi-glace and cook, stirring until warmed through, 2-3 mins.
- Just before serving toss the tomato with salad leaves, balsamic glaze and a drizzle of oil.
- Season with salt and pepper.
TIP: Add a splash of water to loosen the sauce if required.
- Divide the chicken between plates.
- Drizzle over some of the demi-glace.
- Serve sweet potato champ and salad alongside.
