Method
-
Make your marinade - take all of the ingredients and mix them together in a large bowl, adding the chicken breasts and rubbing it into the chicken. Cover with a plate/clingfilm and place back in the fridge. (You can do this up to 24hrs before you plan to cook it - the longer it marinades the better it will taste)
-
Add your potatoes to some boiling, salted water and cook until soft all the way through
-
While the potatoes are cooking heat up your gridle pan/frying pan on a high heat (to make sure it is hot enough sprinkle a bit of water on it - it should sizzle)
-
Add your chicken to the pan and cook for approx. 5-6 minutes each side until the chicken is fully cooked all the way through - let them rest on a warm plate
-
Cook your vegetables as per instructions while chicken is cooking/resting
-
Drain your potatoes and add them back to the saucepan. Put the butter in the pan along with salt, pepper, mixed herbs. Stir until butter melted and potatoes covered in butter.

Dish everything out and enjoy!
