Ingredients
6 medium potatoes, peeled
2 tbsp sunflower oil
3 chicken breasts, sliced
2 cloves of garlic, sliced
1 large onion, sliced
2 peppers, sliced
75g frozen peas
1 tsp each of cayenne pepper, salt and chilli flakes
1 small chilli, sliced (optional)
Salt and pepper to taste
Method
Preheat a fan oven to 180°C. Chop the potatoes into chips and place on a non-stick baking tray. Use one tablespoon of sunflower oil to coat the chips and bake in the oven for 40 minutes. Once the chips are cooked, leave them in the oven to stay warm.
Place a large saucepan or wok on a high heat. Pour in the sunflower oil and cook the chicken first, then add the garlic and onion, finally the peppers and frozen peas. Toss until everything is cooked through.
Add the chips to the cooked chicken and vegetables. Sprinkle in the spices and toss everything together so that the chicken, chips, and vegetables are coated in the spices.
Serve with slices of fresh chilli and season to taste.
