Method
  • 500 g Woolworths sliced sweet potato
  • 4 T olive oil
  • sea salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
  • 4 free-range chicken breasts
  • ½ cup sweet chilli sauce
  • 1 medium cucumber, peeled and sliced
  • 3 carrots, sliced julienne or shaved into ribbons
  • 2 Granny Smith apples, halved and thinly sliced
  • 10 g fresh coriander, for serving
  • 100 g roasted and salted peanuts, for serving
  • For the dressing, mix:

  • 3 T soya sauce
  • ½ T red chilli, chopped
  • ½ T ginger, chopped
  • 1⁄3 T garlic, chopped

1. Preheat the oven to 200°C. Toss the sweet potato in 2 T olive oil, season and roast for 25 minutes, or until golden and cooked through.
