Cooking steps

Roast the Potatoes
1
  • Preheat the oven to 240°C/220°C fan/gas mark 9.
  • Halve the potatoes, quartering any larger pieces, and pop them onto a lined baking tray.
  • Drizzle with oil and season with salt and pepper. Rub the oil over the potatoes then lay them cut-side down on the baking tray.
  • Roast on the top shelf of the oven until fork tender, 25-35 mins.
  • When there's 15 mins left, add the chicken to the tray. Bake for 12-15 mins. IMPORTANT: Wash hands and equipment after handling raw chicken and its packaging. Chicken is cooked when no longer pink in the middle.
Cook the Pear

  • Quarter and core the pear. Thinly slice lengthways. Spread half the balsamic glaze over the top.
  • Place a pan over a high heat with a drizzle of oil.
  • Add the pear and fry until caramelised and charred, 2-3 mins each side.
  • Remove once cooked then fry the bacon until crispy and brown, 3-4 mins on each side. IMPORTANT: Wash hands and equipment after handling raw meat. Cook bacon thoroughly.

Warm the Bread
3
  • Halve the ciabattas. Pop into the oven, cut-side up, to warm through, 2-3 mins.
  • Toss the salad leaves with the remaining balsamic glaze and a good drizzle of oil
  • Season to taste with salt and pepper
