OVEN ROASTED STUFFED CHICKEN BREASTS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Lightly grease a large baking dish.
• In a bowl, mix the ricotta cheese, walnuts, Parmesan cheese, bread crumbs, and oregano.
• Loosen the skin on the chicken breasts to form a pocket, and stuff with the ricotta cheese mixture. Arrange the chicken breasts in a single layer in the prepared baking dish, and brush with oil.
• Bake 45 minutes in the preheated oven, or until the chicken is no longer pink and juices run clear.

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
• Toss the chicken with the cauliflower, tomatoes, potatoes, oil, Italian seasoning, salt and pepper in a large bowl. Transfer the chicken mixture to a rimmed sheet pan. Roast until the chicken and cauliflower are golden and the chicken is cooked through, 40 to 50 minutes.

CHICKEN BREASTS WITH CURRY

Steps:

• Heat 1 tablespoon of the butter in a saucepan. Add onions, garlic, apple and celery. Stir until wilted.
• Add curry powder, stir. Add tomatoes, chicken broth, bay leaf, salt and pepper. Bring to a boil and simmer for 15 minutes, stirring often.
• Discard bay leaf and put mixture through a food processor or food mill and process to a fine texture. If necessary, add more chicken broth to just reach pouring consistency.
• Sprinkle chicken with salt and pepper.
• Heat remaining butter in a nonstick skillet and add chicken. Cook over moderate heat until lightly browned. Turn pieces and cook about 5 minutes more. Do not overcook.
• Pour sauce over chicken, bring to a boil and simmer for 5 minutes. Sprinkle with chopped cilantro, serve.

CHICKEN WITH ROASTED CAULIFLOWER

Steps:

• Take the chicken out of the fridge 30 mins before you want to cook it. Heat oven to 170C/150C fan/gas 3.
• Lay the leafy stalks from the cauliflowers in a large roasting tray (to sit the chicken on). Set the cauliflower heads aside.
• In a small bowl, mix the olive oil with the garlic, thyme and a little salt and pepper. Carefully insert your fingers under the skin of the chicken breasts and loosen the skin from the breasts. Push most of the olive oil mixture under the skin, spreading it over the breast meat with your fingers. Sit the chicken on the cauliflower stalks.
• Drizzle the remaining olive oil mix over the chicken and rub it in well with your hands. Season with pepper and evenly crumble over the stock cube. Tightly cover the tray with foil. Cook for 1 hr 20 mins.
• In the meantime, break the cauliflower heads into florets. Once the cooking time is up, take the tray out of the oven and remove the foil. Turn the oven up to 220C/200C fan/gas 7. While it's coming up to temperature, add the cauliflower florets to the roasting tray and pour in the chicken stock.
• Put the tray on the bottom shelf of the oven. Roast for 30-40 mins, or until the chicken is golden brown all over and the cauliflower is cooked. Halfway through the cooking time, baste the chicken with the juices and toss the cauliflower.
• To make the toasted sourdough, scatter the pieces of sourdough on a small baking tray 20 mins before the end of the chicken cooking time. Drizzle with the olive oil and season. Put on the top shelf of the oven for 15-20 mins, or until golden brown.
• Sprinkle the chopped parsley over the sourdough and mix well. Remove the chicken from the oven and leave to rest for 15 mins before carving. Serve the chicken with the roasted cauliflower, cauliflower stalks and toasted sourdough, spooning over the pan juices.
