• Preheat oven to 240°C/220°C fan-forced. Boil the kettle. Season half chicken with a good pinch of salt and pepper. • In a large frying pan, heat a drizzle of olive oil over medium-high heat. Cook chicken, skin-side down, until browned, 5 minutes each side. Transfer to a lined oven tray, then top with half the butter. • Roast chicken until cooked through, 35-45 minutes. Set aside to rest, 5-10 minutes. • Set the frying pan aside with the residual chicken fat (you'll use it in step 5!).
TIP: Chicken is cooked through when it's no longer pink inside.
• While the chicken is roasting, half-fill a medium saucepan with boiling water, then add a generous pinch of salt. • Peel potato and cut into large chunks. Cook potato in the boiling water, over high heat, until easily pierced with a fork, 12-15 minutes. Drain and return to the saucepan. • Add the milk, salt and remaining butter to the potato. Mash until smooth. Cover to keep warm.
TIP: Save time and get more fibre by leaving the potato unpeeled.
• While the potato is cooking, trim baby rainbow carrots and slice any thicker carrots in half lengthways. • Slice prosciutto (see ingredients) in half lengthways.
• Place carrots on a second lined oven tray and drizzle with olive oil. Season with salt and pepper and toss to coat. Arrange in a single layer and roast for 10 minutes. • Add prosciutto to the oven tray with the carrots and roast until the carrots are tender and prosciutto is crispy, a further 5-10 minutes.
• While the chicken is resting, return the frying pan with the residual chicken fat to medium-high heat. Cook baby leaves, stirring, until softened, 1-2 minutes. Transfer to a plate. • Return the frying pan to medium heat, then add cream (see ingredients), chicken-style stock powder, Dijon mustard (see ingredients), any chicken resting juices and a generous pinch of pepper. Cook, simmering, until thickened, 1-2 minutes.
• Slice half chicken. • Divide potato mash, baby rainbow carrots and baby leaves between plates. Top with roast half chicken. • Pour over creamy Dijon sauce. Top with crispy prosciutto. Enjoy!
