    For the blackened chicken breast, mix all the herbs and spices together in a small bowl, to combine.
    Add the flour to the mix and stir well.
    Coat the chicken breast in the spiced flour, shaking off any excess.
    Heat the oil in a small frying pan, over a moderate heat, and then add the chicken to pan-fry for 5-6 minutes on each side, before placing into the preheated oven to continue cooking for 8-10 minutes, or until the chicken has cooked through.
    For the sweet potato mash, place the sweet potato (diced) into a pan with boiling water, over a high heat, to boil for 6-8 minutes.
    Add the broccoli florets to the water, and continue cooking for a further 1-2 minutes. Drain the sweet potato and broccoli from the water, then mash with the seasoning and the butter. Mash until smooth.
    For the sauce, place all the ingredients into a small pan, over a moderate heat, to reduce and thicken for 3-4 minutes
    To plate up, spoon the sweet potato mash onto a serving plate, top with the blackened chicken, and spoon a little of the sauce over the top.
