Easy Chicken, tomato & squashed new potato traybake

Here’s a recipe you can literally throw together during the week; basically all you need to do is put all the ingredients in a big tray and roast! You get a lovely flavour from the chicken juices and tomatoes, which combine to make a sticky sauce for the potatoes. This is why I like to squash them with a fork so they soak up the juices in the tray.

This recipe massively punches about it’s weight in terms of simple ingredients and prep time - it tastes like you’ve spent hours in the kitchen! And it’s so good for you as well, lots of protein, fibre and healthy fat in the olive oil.
