1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
1-2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
Pinch of salt and pepper

In a baking dish, add oil, dried herbs, salt and pepper and mix together

Bake in oven with sweet potato chips for 18 mins
Rest chicken for a few minutes before serving
Serve how you please. I used a packet salad mix with extra baby spinach.
Serves 1-2 people. Recipe is easily doubled or tripled pending how many people you’re serving.
Tips:
Save the juices from the chicken to pop over steamed vegetables or freeze and use in risotto or add to a stock
Muck around with flavours that you enjoy. You could add garlic, lemon and chilli or ginger, lime and fish sauce or honey and mustard or ground cumin, coriander and garam masala
Add different vegetables that will roast in 18 mins - zucchini, capsicum, onion, broccoli, corn, Brussels sprouts or green beans
Enjoy!
