Equipment

Lidded frying pan
Stovetop

Ingredients

3 cloves garlic
700 g chicken tenderloins
Olive oil 3 tbsp
2 baby gem lettuce
2 peach
½ bunch mint
160 g marinated goat cheese
Lemon 1
Salt and pepper

Instructions

Peel and roughly chop garlic.
3 cloves garlic
Place chicken tenderloins in a bowl with 2 tablespoons olive oil, and garlic. Hold salt and pepper.
3 cloves garlic, 700 g chicken tenderloins, Olive oil
Rinse and slice the base of the lettuce off, then cut into quarters. Arrange on a large serving plate.
Add plain quarters to your child’s plate.
2 baby gem lettuce
Slice peaches in half and pull away from the stone, then cut each half into quarters. Place on the serving plate.
Add some peaches to your child’s plate now.
2 peach
Pick mint leaves, and add to the salad.
½ bunch mint
Add chunks of marinated goat cheese and drizzle a little oil from the jar.
160 g marinated goat cheese
Slice lemon in half and squeeze half (reserve other half for later) the lemon over the salad.
Lemon
Heat a frypan on high heat. Add tenderloins with all the garlic and oil and cook for 7-9 minutes with a lid on. After a minute turn the heat down to medium and turn every few minutes. Use your tongs to get any garlic from the bottom of the pan. Smells so good!
TIP: Lid on will mean the chicken cooks through and garlic flavour infuses into the chicken. If the garlic looks like it is starting to brown, reduce the heat to medium.
Take the chicken off the heat and slice up for children, serving with peaches and lettuce quarters.
For adults, squeeze the remaining half of the lemon over the chicken, drizzle with a tablespoon of olive oil, and season with salt and pepper. Serve alongside the salad.
