Instructions

Before you start

  1. Preheat oven to 220°C or 200°C fan bake. Line an oven tray with baking paper. Bring a steamer pot of hot tap water to a boil. Bring a jug of water to a boil.

Cook chicken

  1. Pat 1 kg chicken nibbles dry and toss in a bowl with ¼ cup Southern style seasoning and 3 tbsp flour, until well coated. Place on the prepared oven tray in a single layer and spray with oil spray. Bake for 20 minutes or until chicken is cooked through and golden.

Make mash

  1. Meanwhile, peel and dice 800 g potatoes. Cook in the steamer pot of boiling water for 12-15 minutes, or until very tender. Drain the pot then transfer the potatoes to the bottom pot with ¼ cup milk, 1 tbsp olive oil and ½ tsp onion powder. Mash until smooth and season to taste with salt and pepper. Set aside covered to keep warm.

Make gravy

  1. Pour 250ml of boiling water into a jug and crumble in 1 cube chicken stock and 1 cube beef stock, stirring to dissolve. Heat 1 tbsp olive oil in a small pot over medium heat. Add 2 tbsp flour and whisk to combine. While stirring, slowly pour in half the stock mixture. Once incorporated, add the remaining stock and ½ tsp onion powder whisking until combined. Stir for 1-2 minutes, until it thickens to a gravy consistency, adding more hot water if too thick. Season to taste with salt and pepper.

Make slaw

  1. Thinly slice 1 capsicum. Add to a large bowl with 120 g slaw mix, 2 tbsp garlic aioli and 1 tbsp apple cider vinegar. Toss to combine and season with salt and pepper.

To serve

  1. Divide the southern baked chicken, mash and slaw between plates and drizzle the gravy over.
