Over the summer we all get a little tired of barbecued chicken, this oven cooked tomato herb chicken makes a change and when served with a salad is still light and summery.
This recipe comes from the back of the Pampas Ready Rolled Puff Pastry pack. Originally Mum had to hand make any pastry she used, so the advent of prepared pastry was almost as good as sliced bread. The first type of prepared pastry came in a block and still needed rolling out which was a bit of a chore, then someone had the great idea of ready rolled sheets and using pastry became a lot easier.
I think Mum taught me well, because like her when I’m entertaining I always like to have everything prepared in advance and leave only a few things to be done when the guests arrive. What I like about this recipe is that you can prepare the chicken up to stage 4 and then cook and serve the rolls when your guests arrive. It would work well with either a salad or vegetables and that makes it very versatile.
