Scale

  • 3 tablespoons olive oil (45 ml)

  • 2 tablespoons fresh rosemary, chopped (6 g)

  • 2 tablespoons fresh thyme, chopped (6 g)

  • 1 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped (3 g)

  • 4 cloves garlic, minced

  • 1 teaspoon paprika (2 g)

  • 1 ½ teaspoons salt (9 g)

  • 1 teaspoon black pepper (2 g)

  • Zest of 1 lemon

  • 400 g pasta

  • 1 cup basil pesto (240 g)

  • 1 cup heavy cream (240 ml)

  • ½ cup grated Parmesan-style cheese (50 g)

  • 1 kg baby potatoes, halved

  • 3 tablespoons olive oil (45 ml)

  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano (2 g)

  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder (3 g)

Instructions

  • Mix olive oil, herbs, garlic, paprika, salt, pepper, and lemon zest. Coat chicken and marinate for at least 30 minutes.

  • Preheat oven to 200°C (400°F). Toss potatoes with olive oil, oregano, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Roast for 35–40 minutes.

  • Grill chicken over medium-high heat for 6–7 minutes per side until cooked through. Rest and slice.

Notes

  • Marinate chicken longer for deeper flavor.

  • Use fresh herbs for best aroma and taste.
