  1. Preheat your oven to 200°C fan. Rub the chicken breast with lemon juice, Italian seasoning, salt, and black pepper. Heat the olive oil in a frying pan over medium-high heat and sear the chicken for 3-4 minutes on each side until golden brown.
  2. Transfer the chicken to a baking dish and place in the oven. Roast for 15 minutes or until cooked through.
  3. Meanwhile, peel and cube the potatoes. Boil in salted water for 10 minutes until tender, then drain.
  4. In a small saucepan, combine the chicken stock paste with 50ml of water and bring to a simmer. Stir in the creme fraiche and finely chopped chives. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  5. Blanch the peas and broccoli in boiling water for 3 minutes, then drain and toss with butter, salt, and pepper.
  6. Serve the roasted chicken drizzled with the chive sauce alongside the buttered peas, potatoes, and broccoli.
