Created with Jamie | Crunchy Garlic Chicken Fillets with Pesto Potatoes

Product was provided by Woolworths for this recipe creation*

Those that are familiar with my blog know I use packet ingredients in some of my recipes. I still love and buy take away food. I still buy pre-prepared foods. As much as I love creating things from scratch where I can, not everything we eat is and that’s okay. We sometimes get caught up in thinking we have to make everything from scratch in our magic $2000+ machine but that isn’t the case at all. You use it how you see fit for your family and household. Whatever works I say!

I am a mum of three young and energetic (but oh so gorgeous!) boys so life is pretty busy here working on the the blog and being co-owner of The 4 Blades Magazine. Some weeks in my house are just crazy. I love that I can buy delicious, affordable, kid friendly food for those nights when I just want a quick, nutritious and delicious meal for the family that isn’t take away or some odd concoction I have created with the last three items in the pantry that no one ends up eating.

I was recently asked to try and also create some exciting new recipes using the Created with Jamie range by Woolworths. This is right up my alley! I am not going to lie; I LOVE Jamie Oliver and everything he is about and stands for. Working on this project certainly has been a highlight for me!

Over the course of this week I will be posting 5 delicious meals using products from the Created with Jamie range. Please leave a comment below and let me know what you think of my creations!

For this recipe I have used the Created with Jamie Crunchy Garlic Chicken Fillets from the freezer section of your local Woolworths. Long time readers know how much I loooooove chicken. I could eat only chicken for the rest of my life and I’d be a happy camper.

These are so full of flavour and absolutely delicious. I had to fight my kiddies for these – they loved these chicken fillets as much as I did. These are so affordable at $8.99 (often on special though for $6.99) for two large free range chicken fillets. Keep a box or two in the freezer for an easy dinner.

Some of the many ways you could cook with these include:

• In burgers with cheese, lettuce and beetroot. You can even slice them in half to form 4 burgers!
• Sliced in a salad with mixed lettuce leaves, crispy bacon, sliced boiled eggs, croutons and a little garlic aioli.
• Sliced and served in tortillas with a little salad, cheese and salsa.
• Bake until almost cooked. Top with a little tomato paste and cheese. Return to the oven to cook the chicken completely and melt the cheese. Serve with steamed veggies or salad.

In today’s recipe I have served these delicious, crunchy chicken breasts with pesto potatoes. What I love about this dish is its perfect in either winter with warmed potatoes or in summer as a cold potato salad. Chicken and potatoes? You really can’t go wrong!
