Cooking Instructions

1 hr
  1. 1

    Butterfly the chicken breasts then cover with cling film and beat out flat with a rolling pin.

  2. 2

    In a bowl, mix the Cajun seasoning with the breadcrumbs and set aside. In a second bowl, add your milk to your beaten eggs. Finally, add flour to third bowl.

  3. 3

    Preheat skillet pan on a medium heat and take your chicken with one hand and dip into flour, egg mixture then breadcrumbs. Set on plate and repeat process until all done.

  4. 4

    Shallow fry chicken for 2-3 minutes on each side on medium-high heat. You may need to cook in batches.

  5. 5

    Add all sauce ingredients to food processor and blitz for 3 minutes. If sauce is too thick, add more water. Pour sauce into skillet pan and add your chicken then pop into oven at 170 degrees for 20 minutes. Add cheeses with 5-10 minutes leftover cooking time.

  6. 6

    Peel, wash and then cut the potatoes into small chunks and bring salted water to the boil. Add potatoes and boil for 3 minutes then drain, and shake well in a parchment lined baking tray. Allow to cool and get oil on pan to medium-high heat.

  7. 7

    Add potatoes to hot pan(s) but don't stir until bottoms brown. Then continue to stir a few times for about 7 minutes until all evenly browned. Drain and toss in garlic butter.
