Ed Smith’s Lemon and Sage Piccata
This method of cooking chicken breast is speedy, self-saucing and perhaps surprisingly succulent. It will become a favourite (if not already one). Sage is not typically involved in a piccata, but I like how it imparts its flavours into the cooking fats, and subsequently the pounded, dredged chicken. Typically, I’ll serve sautéed spinach and mashed potatoes alongside.

Ed Smith’s Chicken, Potato and Comté Pillow Pie
When I’m in a ‘pie from scratch’ mood I use poached chicken, as to my mind this makes a superior pie – in this case, a freeform, pillow-shaped one that houses a serious quantity of succulent meat, waxy potatoes, and loads of nutty cheesy and silken cream. So a humble title, but actually quietly luxurious. As with most pies, this is best made in stages and requires some chilling time.
Ed Smith’s Garlic Butter Chicken Balls with Orzo
