• Step 1

  Preheat the oven at 190c/170c fan/gas mark 5.

  Place the chicken onto a chopping board and cover with cling film. With a food mallet or a rolling pin, pound the thicker part of the breast to even out the thickness to allow even cooking.

Ensure chicken is cooked thoroughly before eating.

• Step 4

  Place the frozen peas in a pot of water with a pinch of salt. Boil for 5 minutes until tender.

• Step 5

  Place the chicken onto the plate with the peas. With the sweet potato on the baking tray, cut lengthwise to reveal flesh, scoop out with a spoon and place onto the plate. It's ready!
