Preparation
1
Prep and roast potato coins

Before starting, preheat the oven to 450˚F. Wash and dry all produce. Heat Guide for Step 4 (dbl for 4 ppl): 1/2 tbsp mild, 1 tbsp medium, 1 1/2 tbsp spicy and 2 tbsp extra-spicy! Cut potatoes into 1/4-inch rounds. Add potatoes and 1 tbsp oil to an unlined baking sheet. Season with salt and pepper, then toss to coat. (NOTE: For 4 ppl, use 2 baking sheets, with 1 tbsp oil per sheet.) Roast in the middle of the oven, flipping halfway through, until tender and golden-brown, 20-24 min. (NOTE: For 4 ppl, roast in the middle and bottom of the oven, rotating sheets halfway through.)

2
Prep chicken

While potato coins roast, stir together garlic puree, Paprika-Garlic-Cumin Blend and 1/2 tbsp oil (dbl for 4 ppl) in a small bowl. Pat chicken dry with paper towels on a separate cutting board. Carefully slice into the centre of each chicken breast, parallel to the cutting board, leaving 1/2-inch intact on the other end. Open up chicken like a book. Season both sides with salt and pepper.

3
Cook chicken

Heat a large non-stick pan over medium-high heat. When hot, add 1/2 tbsp oil (dbl for 4 ppl), then chicken. Cook until golden, 2-3 min per side. (NOTE: Don't overcrowd the pan; cook chicken in 2 batches if needed!) Transfer chicken to another unlined baking sheet. Spread garlic mixture over chicken. Bake in the top of the oven until chicken is cooked through, 6-9 min.**

4
Make cilantro-jalanpeño sauce

While chicken bakes, zest, then juice half the lime (whole lime for 4 ppl). Cut any remaining lime into wedges. Finely chop cilantro. Thinly slice green onions. Very finely chop 1 tbsp green onions (dbl for 4 ppl). Core, then finely chop jalapeño, removing seeds for less heat. (TIP: We suggest using gloves when prepping jalapeños!) Add mayo, finely chopped green onions, cilantro, lime zest, half the lime juice and 1 tbsp jalapeño to another small bowl. (NOTE: Reference heat guide.) Season with salt and pepper, then stir to combine.

5
Make salad

Add remaining lime juice, 1/2 tsp sugar and 1 tbsp oil (dbl both for 4 ppl) to a large bowl. Season with salt and pepper, then whisk to combine. Add spring mix and remaining green onions, then toss to combine.

6
Finish and serve

Thinly slice chicken. Divide chicken, potato coins and salad between plates. Serve cilantro-jalapeño sauce alongside for dipping. Squeeze over a lime wedge, if desired.
