Nutrition per serve

Ingredients

• 2pcs potato
• 1pcs onion
• 25g parmesan
• 300g chicken breast fillet
• 40g panko breadcrumbs
• 10g Italian seasoning
• 150g peas
• 70ml olive oil
• 1pcs egg
• 15ml plain flour
• 10ml sugar
• 10ml balsamic or red wine vinegar

Method

1. Step 1 — Mash potato
   Peel the potatoes and cut into 2cm chunks. Thinly slice the onion. Finely grate the parmesan. Put the 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 and return to the pan. Mash the potato until smooth. Add 1 tbs olive oil, season with salt and pepper and stir to combine.
2. Step 2 — Crumb chicken
   Meanwhile, put the chicken flat on a board, put your hand on top and halve horizontally into fillets. Whisk 1 egg in a bowl. Reserve 1 tbs parmesan. Combine the breadcrumbs, half the Italian seasoning* and remaining parmesan in a shallow bowl. Put 1 tbs flour in a separate bowl. Dust chicken with flour, shake off excess, then dip in egg and coat in breadcrumb mixture.
3. Step 3 — Caramelise onion
   Heat 2 tsp olive oil in a medium frypan over medium heat. Cook the onion, stirring, for 3-4 mins until softened. Add 2 tsp sugar and 2 tsp balsamic vinegar and cook, stirring occasionally, for 5 mins or until the onion is caramelised. Add the onion to the mashed potato and stir to combine, then cover to keep warm. Reserve the frypan.
4. Step 4 — Cook schnitzels
   Bring a small saucepan of water to the boil for the peas. Heat 2 tbs olive oil in the reserved frypan over medium heat. Cook the chicken schnitzels 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
   While the schnitzels are cooking, add the peas to the pan of boiling water and cook for 2 mins or until tender. Drain, then season with salt and pepper. Divide the onion mash, chicken schnitzels and peas among plates. Scatter over the reserved parmesan and enjoy!
6. Step 6 — Make it yours
   Feel free to serve the chicken with mayo or tomato sauce for dipping.
