Provided by Sunil Vijayakar

Prep Time 2 hours

Cook Time 2 hours

Yield Serves 4

Number Of Ingredients 13

3 tsp ground cumin
4 tsp smoked paprika
2 tsp dried thyme
2 tsp dried oregano
1 tsp red chilli flakes
1 tsp garlic salt
1 tbsp olive oil
1 lemon, finely grated lemon zest and juice
4 skinless chicken breasts
4 sweet potatoes, scrubbed and cut into thick wedges
1 tbsp light olive oil
1–2 tbsp sweet smoked paprika
sea salt and freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • For the Cajun spice mix, combine all the ingredients for the spice mix plus a pinch of salt and a generous grinding of black pepper. Pour the mixture into a sealable storage box big enough to hold the chicken pieces.
  • For the chicken, put the chicken breasts on a board and cover with baking paper. Bash them with a rolling pin until just under 2cm/¾in thick all over. Put the chicken breasts into the spice mix and thoroughly coat the chicken with the mixture. Refrigerate the chicken breasts for 3–4 hours, or overnight if possible.
  • Preheat the oven to 200C/180C Fan/Gas 6 and remove the chicken from the marinade, shaking off any excess.
  • Toss the sweet potato wedges in a bowl with the oil and sweet smoked paprika, and season well with sea salt and freshly ground black pepper. Spread out on a non-stick baking tray and bake for 20–25 minutes, or until golden-brown and tender, turning halfway through.
  • Meanwhile, heat a non-stick, ridged griddle pan until hot. Arrange the chicken breasts on the pan and cook for 15 minutes, turning once or twice until cooked through (or when the juices run clear when a skewer is inserted into the thickest part). Serve the chicken with the potato wedges.

  • Cook pasta according to package directions. Drain when pasta is still al dente; do not overcook!Sprinkle 1 1/2 teaspoons Cajun spice over chicken pieces. Toss around to coat. Heat 1 tablespoon oil and 1 tablespoon butter in a heavy skillet over high heat. Add half the chicken in a single layer; do not stir. Allow chicken to brown on one side, about 1 minute. Flip to the other side and cook an additional minute. Remove with a slotted spoon and place on a clean plate. Repeat with remaining chicken. Remove chicken, leaving pan on high heat. Add remaining olive oil and butter. When heated, add peppers, onions, and garlic. Sprinkle on remaining Cajun spice, and add salt if needed. Cook over very high heat for 1 minute, stirring gently and trying to get the vegetables as dark/black as possible. Add tomatoes and cook for an additional 30 seconds. Remove all vegetables from the pan. With the pan over high heat, pour in the wine and chicken broth. Cook on high for 3 to 5 minutes, scraping the bottom of the pan to deglaze. Reduce heat to medium-low and pour in cream, stirring/whisking constantly. Cook sauce over medium-low heat for a few minutes, until cream starts to thicken the mixture. Taste and add freshly ground black pepper, cayenne pepper, and/or salt to taste. Sauce should be spicy! Finally, add chicken and vegetables to sauce, making sure to include all the juices that have drained onto the plate. Stir and cook for 1 to 2 minutes, until mixture is bubbly and hot. Add drained fettuccine and toss to combine. Top with chopped fresh parsley and chow down!
