Chicken piccata with garlicky greens & new potatoes

SERVES 2 PREP 5 mins COOK 15 mins EASY

200g new potatoes, halved

or quartered

300g green beans, trimmed 200g spring greens, shredded 2 skinless chicken breasts

3 tsp olive oil

100ml chicken stock or water 1 tbsp drained capers

1 lemon, zested and juiced 2 small garlic cloves, sliced 1 tbsp grated parmesan

1 Cook the new potatoes in a large pan of boiling salted water for 8-10 mins until tender. Add the green beans and spring greens for the last 3 mins. Drain, then separate the greens from the potatoes.

2 While the potatoes are cooking, cut the chicken breasts through the centre lengthways, leaving one side attached so it opens out like a book. Brush each one with

1 tsp of the olive oil, then season.

3 Heat a large frying pan over a medium-high heat and cook the chicken for 4 mins on each side until golden. Add the stock, capers, lemon juice and zest, then simmer gently for a few minutes to reduce. Add the cooked potatoes and simmer for another minute.

4 Heat the remaining 1 tsp oil in another frying pan and fry the garlic for 1 min until lightly golden and fragrant. Tip in the drained greens, and toss in the garlicky oil. Season, then scatter over the parmesan and serve with the chicken and potatoes.
