How to Make Crispy Paprika Chicken with Tomatoes and Lentils
Put the chicken breasts between two sheets of baking
parchment and, using a rolling pin, roll to a 1cm
thickness. Rub with the paprika, lemon zest, ½ tbsp oil, salt and pepper.
Cover and set aside while you start the lentils
|
Heat the remaining oil in a pan and add the garlic, fennel
seeds and fennel slices with a pinch of salt. Cook for 5 mins until starting
to soften, then tip in the tomatoes, vinegar and lentils. Turn down the heat
and leave to bubble away.

eat another non-stick frying pan over a high
heat, add the chicken breasts and cook for 7 mins, turning halfway, until
golden brown and cooked through. Add the watercress to the lentils and stir
to wilt, then squeeze in the lemon juice. Slice the chicken then serve it
alongside the lentils with a dollop of yogurt and dill.
