Method
- Put the onion in a bowl and add the vinegar and a pinch of salt; set aside.
- Use a slotted spoon to transfer the chicken and veg from the leftover stew to a bowl. Simmer the liquid in a saucepan for 2-3 mins over a medium- high heat until reduced and thickened. Chop larger pieces of chicken and potato into smaller pieces.
- Meanwhile, preheat the oven to gas 7, 220°C, fan 200°C. Unroll the pastry, leaving it on its paper, and transfer to a baking tray. Score a 2cm border around the edges and prick the inside with a fork.
- Spread the sauce onto the pastry, keeping it inside the border, then spoon over the chicken mix. Brush the edges with oil, crumble over the cheese, then bake for 18-20 mins until bubbling.
- Whisk the remaining oil with the lemon zest, juice, most of the herbs and some seasoning. Add to a bowl with the beans, drain the red onion and stir in. Serve alongside the tart, scattered with the remaining herbs.
