Instructions

Stay Awake

Preheat oven to 200°C on fan bake. Cut a lengthwise slit along each chicken breast to form a pocket. In a small bowl combine the onion, cream cheese and prunes. Spoon quarter of the cream cheese mix into each chicken breast and push it in firmly. Place chicken on a lined baking tray and spray with oil. Bake for 20—25 minutes until the juices run clear.
Meanwhile place kumara in a medium-sized saucepan, cover with boiling water and boil for 15—20 minutes until soft. Place the greens on a lined baking tray and toss with sesame oil and plenty of pepper. Place in the oven and bake for 10—12 minutes until just soft and lightly golden. Add the sliced almonds and cook for a further few minutes.
Drain and mash the kumara. Serve alongside the stuffed chicken and roasted greens.
