A Jamie Oliver Feast

Roast Chicken breast 4 ways

I found myself past midnight and once again rummaging through Jamie Oliver cookbooks. I have to admit, it was a moment of weakness and lack of sleep. Marking many pages with little animal sticky notes, I finally came to the conclusion that roast chicken breast from Jamie's 'Cook with Jamie' cookbook, would satisfy my families taste buds. 

 Step by step I worked my way through every section of this recipe following Jamie's every command.  

 Roast chicken with cherry tomatoes and asparagus

Trimmed asparagus 

Cherry tomatoes sliced in half

The ingredients needed to complete the chicken recipe

Un - cooked and ready to bake
                                     

I found this one the most simple out of the four, but that didn't undermine the taste of the dish. 
                                   

Roast chicken in pancetta with leeks and thyme

A sharp knife was used to slice the white part of the leek into 1 cm pieces.

White wine, Olive oil, Salt,Pepper, Butter, Pancetta, Leeks, Fresh thyme.

Pancetta wrapped chicken in a foil baking dish.


This was my favorite dish of all as I forgot what leeks taste like; juicy and complex in flavor with a simple touch of thyme and butter. 


Roast chicken with creamy butternut squash and chilli

A little butternut pumpkin chopped in four. 

Only a few ingredients, but it is ready to assemble.

Cosy and stuffed prepared before roasting. 

I love pumpkin immensely so this dish had no fault in my eyes. Mhhh I enjoyed scoffing this one down. My lack of obtaining chills was no distaste to the dish.

Roast chicken with lemony Bombay potatoes

Odd ingredients for roast chicken. Sliced lemon, Lemon zest, Parsley, Lemon juice, Capsicum, White potatoes, Sweet potatoes, Olive oil, Turmeric, Nutmeg.  

Beautifully served and organised to cook to perfection.  


This was a lovely Thai flavored dish and all in all, it was my favorite chicken flavor, This I think is because it was rubbed in turmeric and nutmeg before baking.
