Dukkah-Roasted Chicken

Dukkah-Roasted Chicken

Source: HelloFresh

We’ve fallen in love with dukkah—an Egyptian spice blend containing crushed nuts, sesame seeds, cumin, and coriander. It’s earthy and nutty in all the best ways. It gives this simple, pan-seared chicken and roasted sweet potatoes a major upgrade!

Method

  1. Preheat the oven to 200°C. Trim the snap peas. Cut the sweet potato into 1.5 cm cubes. Toss them on a baking sheet with half the dukkah, a drizzle of olive oil, and a pinch of salt and pepper. Place in the oven, tossing halfway through cooking, for 20-25 minutes, until golden brown.
  2. Zest, then halve the lime. In a small bowl, mix the sour cream, a pinch of lime zest, and a squeeze of lime juice. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Thin to a drizzling consistency using a teaspoon or so of water.
  3. Place your hand on top of the chicken breast and slice into the center of the meat, parallel to the cutting board. Stop before cutting all the way through. Open the chicken up like a book, cover with plastic wrap, and pound with a mallet or large pan until 1.5 cm thick. Repeat with the other chicken breast. Season on all sides with salt, pepper, and the remaining dukkah.
  4. Cook the chicken: Heat a drizzle of oil in a large pan over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the chicken to the pan and cook for 3-4 minutes per side, until cooked through. Remove from the pan and set aside to rest.
  5. Cook the snap peas: Heat another drizzle of oil in the same pan over medium heat. Add the snap peas and cook, tossing for 4-5 minutes, until crisp-tender. Season with salt and pepper.
  6. Finish and plate: Serve the chicken on a bed of roasted sweet potatoes and snap peas. Drizzle with the citrus sour cream and enjoy!
