Cooking steps
- Preheat oven to 240°C/220°C fan/gas mark 9.
- Halve any larger potatoes.
- On a lined baking tray, toss the potatoes with salt, pepper and a drizzle of oil. Roast on the top shelf of the oven, 15-20 mins.
- After 20 mins, remove from the oven. Lightly crush each potato with the bottom of a pan.
- Drizzle with oil. Sprinkle with cheese and bacon. IMPORTANT: Wash hands and equipment after handling raw meat. Roast until golden, 10-15 mins.
- Meanwhile, in a small bowl, mix together the pesto and mayo.
- Trim the salad leaves, halve lengthways and thinly slice widthways.
- Trim and thinly slice the scallion.
- Just before serving, toss the salad leaves through the honey mustard dressing.
- Lay the chicken out on a board.
- Place your hand flat on top of the chicken and slice through horizontally to make two thin steaks. IMPORTANT: Wash hands and equipment after handling raw chicken and its packaging.
- Repeat with the other breast(s).
- Season with salt and pepper.
TIP: Notice a stronger smell from your chicken? Don’t worry, this is normal due to packaging we use to keep it fresh.
- Beat one egg (per 2P) in a medium bowl.
- Add the breadcrumbs to a separate bowl. Season with salt and pepper.
- Dip the chicken first into the egg and then the breadcrumbs, ensuring it's completely coated.
- Shake off any excess breadcrumbs and transfer to a clean plate.
- Place a large pan over high heat with just enough oil to cover the bottom.
- Once hot, lay the chicken into the pan, reduce the heat to medium-high and fry until golden brown and cooked through, 8-10 mins.
- Turn every 2-3 mins, adjusting the heat if necessary. IMPORTANT: Chicken is cooked when no longer pink in the middle.
- Meanwhile, pop the buns into the oven to warm through, 1-2 mins.
TIP: Cook in batches if the pan is too crowded.
- When everything's ready, spread the pesto mayo over the cut side of the bun lids.
- Top the bun bases with a handful of salad.
- Load on the crumbed chicken, then sandwich shut with the bun lids.
- Serve the remaining salad and cheesy bacon smashed potatoes alongside.
- Sprinkle sliced scallion over the potatoes to finish.
