For the perfect pan roasted chicken breast, start by heating a skillet over a medium high heat and preheating your oven to 180°C.

Dry your chicken breast well with a paper towel and season well on the skin side with salt and pepper.

Add a little oil to the pan and place the breast skin side down in the pan. Press the chicken breast down into the pan to ensure good contact.

Leave to cook like this for 4 or 5 minutes till the skin is a perfect golden brown.

Season the other side of the breast and flip so it is skin side up and immediately put in the oven to roast for at least 8 minutes.

Check the internal temperature with a probe it must be at least 72°C when you remove from the oven.

Remove the breast from the pan and allow to rest for at least 10 minutes before serving.

All our meat is delivered frozen.

We deliver it to you in insulated sustainable wool packaging that can keep it frozen for 72hrs. When you receive your meat please put it straight in the freezer. Even if it has defrosted it is ok to put back in the freezer as long as it is not warm.

We deliver it frozen for a number of critical reasons:

• Natures preservative. Freezing is one of the most ancient of all methods of preservation. We firmly believe that when frozen rapidly there is no loss of quality in the meat.

• Sustainability. By freezing our meat we can ensure there is as close to zero waste as possible. Our meat is frozen as soon as it is butchered in protective packaging that allows us to keep the meat perfectly for over a year. This is vs 10 days for fresh.

• Seasonality. Like vegetables, meat has a season. By freezing our meat we can select our produce when it is at its very best. Fresh meat butchers cannot do this and you can taste the difference in our meat.

• Better supporting farmers. For our farmers it is most profitable for them to get the produce off the farm as soon as it is ready. This allows us to support them better.
