Rosemary Chicken

Rosemary Chicken with Potato Gratin

So while I wouldn't count potato gratin as 'healthy' this recipe is 666 calories, which would not put me over the GDA for women and if you can't have little luxuries I will break and splurge on chocolate cakes and all the fried food in sight.

I have modified the ingredients so that it only feeds one seeing as I'm a student and only feed myself but I'm sure multiplying the ingredients for extra people shouldn't be to hard.

Ingredients
200g potatoes
1 small onion
sunflower oil
1 chicken stock cube
25ml single cream
10g Parmesan cheese

1 skinless chicken breast
fresh rosemary

150g various vegetables (Peas, carrots, broccoli, really whatever I have in the freezer)

Method

1. Finely (well as finely as an amateur can) slice the potatoes, then tip into a saucepan and cover with boiling water and boil on high heat.
2. Peel the onion and finely slice (I've actually found a bag of frozen diced onions in Tesco for £1 which cuts down time and cuts on my fingers) and then tip into a roasting tray with 1 tablespoons of the oil. Then crumble the stock cube on top of the oil and stir it about a bit.
3. On a sheet of grease proof paper, toss the chicken and the rosemary, then fold the paper over and flatten the chicken to 1.5cm thick. (The recipe said to do this by bashing it with a rolling pin, which I have found is a great stress relief after a hard day, just make sure your housemates know what you're doing so they doing think an axe murderer is in the house. I learnt this the hard way.) 
4. Put the chicken in a frying pan with a tablespoon of oil. Turn the heat to high and flip after 3 or 4 minutes.
5. While the chicken is cooking, drain the potatoes and tip into the onion pan. Make sure that they are at an even level otherwise it will not cook evenly (again I learnt this the hard way).
6. Pour over the cream and grate the parmesan cheese.
7. Then chuck under the grill on a high heat until the top goes brown.
8. Rinse the potato saucepan and put the vegetables in and boil for however long the packet says.
