Accompaniment
SponsoredBaron de Ley Club Privado Reserva Rioja
The Baron de Ley winery was founded by a prestigious group of Rioja professionals in 1985. They were quite unique in their approach as they modelled the winery on a Medoc chateaux, which was a pioneering move at that time for producers in the Denominacion de Origen Calificada Rioja. This wine is aged in new oak casks for 20 months prior to resting in the bottle for 2 years before release. It has definite claret qualities; the nose is layered with ripe cherry, toasty oak and a touch of cigar box. Lively, ripe, red fruit with dried tobacco and nutty vanilla overtones, round tannins with an expressive woody finish. Rioja wine can be excellent value for money and has terrific cellaring potential. Buy this wine if you like: Well rounded reds, with soft fruit and toasty character, easy drinking for upfront pleasure.

1. Cut the chicken into two or three pieces each. Coat very lightly with flour, dip in beaten egg then dip in the sesame seeds. Make sure they are well coated.
2. Place the coated fillets in the grill pan under a hot grill and cook for about 5 minutes on each side until thoroughly cooked. The cut flesh should not show any pink at all.
3. To make the celeriac mash, peel and slice the celeriac. Cook in a steamer or in water until tender. Then drain and place in a blender and puree or mash with a potato masher and mix with the other ingredients.
Chef's Tips
Serve this with any vegetables, but green beans or broccoli go well. The mash comes out quite soft and creamy. If you prefer a firmer teture or are particularly hungry, mash a large cooked potato with the celeriac.
