Cooking Steps

1

Preheat the oven to 450°F. (To bake the chicken and roast the sweet potatoes.) Start prepping when your oven comes up to temperature!

Zest the lemon
2

Prep: Wash and dry all produce. Zest, then juice the lemon. Toss the sweet potatoes with a drizzle of oil on a foil-lined baking sheet and arrange it on one side of the sheet. In a medium bowl, crush the cornflake cereal with your hands until finely crumbled. Stir in the lemon zest and as much spice blend as you like.

3

Bake the chicken: Coat each chicken thigh with mayonnaise, then press into the cornflake mixture to completely cover. Arrange the chicken on the other side of the baking sheet. (To serve 4 people, you may need two baking sheets.) Bake in the centre of the oven, flipping halfway through baking, until the sweet potatoes are roasted and the chicken is cooked through, 20-23 min. (TIP: Inserting a thermometer into the cooked chicken should display an internal temperature of 175°F.)

Make the slaw
4

Make the slaw: Meanwhile, thinly slice the green onion. In a large bowl, whisk 1 tbsp lemon juice (double for 4 people) with the yogurt (DO: measure out) and Dijon. Add the cabbage, carrot and green onion and stir to coat. Season with sugar, salt and pepper to taste.

5

Finish and serve: Divide the crispy chicken, sweet potato fries and the coleslaw between plates. Enjoy!
