For the potatoes:

1. Marinade the chicken
Combine the orange juice, brandy, honey and some of the thyme in a small bowl and mix well. Place the chicken fillets in the bowl and marinade in the refrigerator for 2 hours.
2. Prepare the potatoes
Parboil the diced potatoes for 10 minutes and strain. Mix together the olive oil and butter in a Fest non stick fry pan and fry the potatoes for approx.10-15 minutes until golden-brown.
3. Prepare the sauce
Once the marinade chicken is ready,remove it and tip the marinade out into a Fest non stick fry pan. Add butter and chicken stock and reduce on a high heat for 10-15 minutes, until the sauce has thickened slightly. If necessary, add the cornflour dissolved in 2 tbsp of warm water and stir into the sauce.
4. Grill the chicken fillets
Grill the fillets either on your grill, or in a Fest non stick grill pan for 7 minutes each side until golden.
Serving
Put each chicken fillet into a serving dish. Surround with the fried potato cubes and drizzle all over with the sauce. Garnish with a couple of sprigs of thyme.
