Preparation
1
Roast the Wedges

Preheat your oven to 220°C/200°C fan/gas mark 7.

Chop the potatoes into 2cm wide wedges (no need to peel).

Pop the wedges onto a large baking tray. Drizzle with oil, season with salt and pepper, then toss to coat. Spread out in a single layer. TIP: Use two baking trays if necessary.

When the oven is hot, roast on the top shelf until golden, 25-35 mins. Turn halfway through.

2
Get Prepping

Meanwhile, sandwich each chicken breast between two pieces of baking paper or cling film. TIP: Notice a stronger smell from your chicken? Don’t worry, this is normal due to packaging we use to keep it fresh.

Pop onto a board, then give them a bash with a rolling pin or the bottom of a saucepan until they're 1-2cm thick. Season with salt and pepper.

Crack the egg (see pantry for amount) into a medium bowl and whisk.

Put the breadcrumbs into another large bowl and add the mixed herbs, pepper and salt (see pantry for amount). Mix together.

3
Bread the Chicken

When the potatoes have 10 mins remaining, add the lardons to the tray. Pop into the oven and roast until golden, 8-10 mins. IMPORTANT: Wash your hands and equipment after handling raw meat. Cook bacon thoroughly.

Dip the chicken into the egg and then the breadcrumbs, ensuring it's completely coated.

Transfer to a clean plate. IMPORTANT: Wash your hands and equipment after handling raw chicken and its packaging and discard any excess egg.

4
Fry your Schnitzel

Pop a large frying pan on high heat and add enough oil to completely coat the bottom of the pan. TIP: You want the oil to be hot so the chicken fries properly - heat for 2-3 mins before you add the chicken.

Once hot, carefully lay the chicken into the pan, reduce the heat to medium-high and fry until golden brown and cooked through, 8-10 mins total.

Turn every 2-3 mins and adjust the heat if necessary. IMPORTANT: The chicken is cooked when no longer pink in the middle.

Once cooked, transfer the chicken to a plate lined with kitchen paper.

5
Tomato Time

Meanwhile, halve the baby plum tomatoes.

6
Finish and Serve

When ready, share the schnitzels and bacon wedges between your plates.

Serve the baby leaf salad alongside, topped with the tomatoes and finished with a drizzle of balsamic glaze.

Finish with a dollop of burger sauce on the side for dipping.
