Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Tip the potatoes on a large baking tray, sprinkle with salt and drizzle over olive oil. Roast for about 35 minutes or until golden and soft.
  • In a large skillet set over medium to high heat, add the olive oil and garlic and stir for a minute. Add the tomatoes and stir well. Reduce heat to medium low and add about 1/4 cup/60 ml of the stock. Stir well, cover and leave to simmer for about 10 minutes. Remove cover and stir well. Tomatoes should be stewed. Remove from pan and set aside.
  • Season each side of the chicken with the salt and pepper. In the reserved skillet set over medium to high heat, add the chicken. Sear each side for 2-3 minutes. Add the tomatoes, stock and balsamic vinegar. Stir to combine, cover, reduce heat to low and leave for about 15 minutes.
  • Remove lid from chicken and evenly toss in the potatoes, covering with all the tomatoes. Sprinkle over parmesan. Leave uncovered for about 2-3 more minutes or until the parmesan is completely melted.
  • Top with fresh parsley and serve.
