Method

  1. Heat oven to 220C/fan 200C/gas 7. Place the sweet potatoes on a baking tray, then toss with the oil, chilli flakes and seasoning. Roast for 10 mins, then remove and reduce the oven to 200C/fan 180C/gas 6.
  2. Lay half the chorizo slices over each chicken breast, overlapping so the chicken is covered, then tuck the edges underneath to secure. Lift onto the baking tray next to the wedges, scatter the wedges with thyme leaves, then roast for 20 mins more, turning the chicken and wedges halfway until golden.

    I love this! I always thought of chorizo as being full of fat, so I was delighted to find this recipe in the low fat category. Very tasty and really easy to make - I will make this again and again.

    lovely easy supper dish for two. We served this with a ramekin of low calorie mayo. Lots of different textures with the cripsy chorizo and tender chicken. Will certainly repeat this recipe again.

    This was really very good! The chorizo keeps the chicken moist while it's cooking. Delicious!
