Instructions
Preheat your oven to 220°C
Put potato rounds and salt in a pot of cold water, then bring to the boil. Once boiling, reduce heat to simmer for 2 minutes, then drain and set aside.
Heat a drizzle of olive oil in a fry pan on high heat. Pat the chicken dry and season with salt, then cook for 2-3 minutes each side, until caramelised. Remove from the pan, and wrap in foil to rest. Turn the pan down to low heat.
Mix sugar, balsamic vinegar, and soy sauce in a small bowl, then tip into the pan to simmer. Stir often for about 2 minutes, or until the sauce is thickened, then mix through the potatoes. Season with salt and pepper.
Tip the potatoes into an oven-safe dish, then place chicken and any resting juices on top and pop in the oven for about 10 minutes (until chicken is cooked through). Remove from the oven and cover with foil while you prep your salad.
To serve, divide the chicken and potatoes between plates, and serve your salad on the side. Enjoy!
