A WORD FROM THE CHEF

If you fancy a fuss-free chicken and chips tea with a hit of spice, this will tick all your boxes! And, at only half a syn per serving on the Slimming World Extra Easy plan, it won't go hard on your waistline.

INGREDIENTS

(Serves four)

Two level tablespoons of Nando’s Medium Peri-Peri Sauce

1tbsp tomato purée

2tbsp lemon juice

One garlic clove, crushed

Four chicken legs, skin removed

1kg potatoes, cut into thin chips

Low-calorie cooking spray

For the slaw

Two red peppers, deseeded and thinly sliced

Half a red onion, thinly sliced

Quarter a white cabbage, shredded

4tbsp fat-free natural yogurt

Juice of three limes

METHOD

Preheat your oven to 190°C/fan 170°C/gas 5 and line a large baking tray with baking paper.

Mix together the peri-peri sauce, tomato purée, lemon juice and garlic and season lightly.

Rub all over the chicken legs, place on the prepared tray and roast for 10 minutes.

Remove the tray from the oven and carefully spread the chips out around the chicken. Season lightly, spray with low-calorie cooking spray and cook for a further 40 minutes, flipping the chips and spraying them with more low-calorie cooking spray halfway.

Meanwhile, mix together all the slaw ingredients.

Divide the chicken, chips and slaw between four plates to serve.

TOP TIP

If you prefer your food less spicy, use one of the other Nando’s Peri-Peri Sauces, such as Lemon and Herb or Mild.
