Ingredients

  • 1pcs potato
  • 1pcs small sweet potato
  • 150g green beans
  • 300g chicken tenderloins
  • 40g panko breadcrumbs
  • 10g country seasoning
  • 20g butter
  • 1pcs egg
  • 15ml plain flour
  • 30ml olive oil
  • 30ml tomato sauce (optional)

Method

  1. Step 1 — Prep ingredients
    Peel the potato and sweet potato and cut into 2cm chunks. Trim the beans. Cut the chicken into thirds.
  2. Step 2 — Make two-potato smash
    Put the potato and sweet potato in a medium saucepan of cold salted water and bring to the boil. Reduce the heat to medium and cook for 10-12 mins until tender. Drain, then return to the pan and coarsely mash (see Make it yours). Add 20g butter, season with salt and pepper and stir to combine.
  3. Step 3 — Crumb chicken
    Meanwhile, whisk 1 egg in a shallow bowl. Combine the breadcrumbs and country seasoning in a separate shallow bowl. Put 1 tbs plain flour in a third bowl. Dust the chicken with the flour, shake off the excess, then dip in the egg and coat in the breadcrumb mixture.
  4. Step 4 — Fry chicken nuggets
    Bring a small saucepan of water to the boil for the beans. Heat 2 tbs olive oil in a medium frypan over medium heat. Cook the nuggets for 2-3 mins each side until golden and cooked through. Remove from the pan and drain on paper towel. Season with salt and pepper.
  5. Step 5 — Serve up
    Meanwhile, add the beans to the pan of boiling water and cook for 2-3 mins until tender. Drain, then season with salt and pepper. Divide the chicken nuggets, potato smash and beans among plates and serve with the tomato sauce, if using. Enjoy!
  6. Step 6 — Make it yours
    We coarsely mashed the potato to give it some texture, but you can mash it until smooth if you prefer.
