Weights are estimates. Together, the ingredients weigh about 1.88 kg before cooking, which is about 625 g per serving.

Steps

  1. Peel and chop the sweet potatoes.

  2. Put the sweet potatoes in a pot of boiling water and cook for 15–20 minutes, until fork-tender.

  3. Drain the sweet potatoes, then mash with the milk and 25 g salted butter until smooth.

  4. Put the chicken thigh fillets in a mixing bowl with the ginger, 3 cloves of garlic, chilli flakes, Italian mixed herbs, onion powder, honey, 2 tbsp olive oil, and juice of 1 lemon. Mix thoroughly with your hands until the chicken is fully coated.

  5. Arrange the chicken skin-side up on a baking tray for the oven, or in the air fryer. Cook in a 200°C (400 °F) fan oven for 25–30 minutes, or at 190°C (375 °F) in the air fryer for 18–22 minutes, until golden and crispy.

  6. While the chicken cooks, heat a little olive oil and the 15 g salted butter in a pan. Add the 2 cloves of garlic and green beans and fry for a few minutes.

  7. Squeeze in the juice of ½ lemon and fry for a few more minutes, until the beans are soft and tender.

  8. Serve the chicken with the green beans and sweet potato mash.
