Method

  • STEP 1
    Mix the marinade ingredients together, to form a smooth paste.
  • STEP 2
    Place the chicken breasts in a large dish with the marinade, cover with cling film, and leave in the fridge overnight.
  • STEP 3
    Cut the baking potatoes into thick chunky chip shapes, trying to get about 4 chips per potato

    Boil the chips in a large pan of boiling water, for about 10 minutes
  • STEP 5
    Place the chips onto a baking tray, sprinkle the cayenne pepper and black pepper evenly over the chips, and drizzle with olive oil (fry light works well too). Place in a preheated oven at 190C
  • STEP 6
    In a smoking hot frying pan, add the chicken breasts, and cook for approximately 3 mins on each side. Add any remaining marinade from the bowl, then transfer to a baking dish, and place in the oven with the chips
  • STEP 7
    Using the same frying pan the chicken was cooked in, add the tomatoes and sugar, and cook for around 5 mins on a high heat. Then add the Jack Daniels (and flambee if using gas!). Leave to reduce.
  • STEP 8
    After aproximately 20 minutes, remove the chicken from the oven, and add back into the frying pan with the tomatoes
  • STEP 9
    Remove the chips from the oven (once golden in colour) and stack into a tower of 6 chips per person on large plates
  • STEP 10
    Place a chicken breast on each plate alongside the chip tower, and drizzle in the sauce = garnish with coriander
