  • 2 tbsp water
  • 25g black olives, sliced

  • Fresh basil

Method

  1. Preheat the oven to 200C. Place the chicken in a roasting dish.
  2. Mix the breadcrumbs, tomato puree, water, olives, and basil. Press onto the chicken firmly then bake for 25 minutes. Before eating, check the chikcen is cooked through with no pink meat.
  3. Serve with cannelinni beans and sweetcorn.
