Ingredients

CHICKEN & VEGETABLES

  • 400g kumara, sliced into 1cm thick rounds
  • 1 capsicum, sliced into 2cm wedges
  • 1/2 pack smoky paprika
  • 2 courgette, thinly sliced
  • 1 pack lean chicken breasts
  • 1/2 pack smoky paprika

SALAD

  • 1/2 punnet cherry tomatoes, halved
  • 1/2 pack rocket
  • 2 tsp balsamic vinegar

TO SERVE

  • 1 pack romesco sauce

Steps

  1. Preheat oven to 220°C.
  2. Prep & cook vegetables. Toss kumara on a lined oven tray with capsicum, first measure of smoky paprika and 2 tsp oil. Season and roast in oven for 10 minutes. Add courgette to tray and cook a further 15 minutes, until veggies are tender.

  4. Cook chicken. Heat 1 tsp of oil in a fry-pan on medium heat. Cook chicken for 3-5 minutes each side (depending on thickness), or until cooked through. Rest, covered.
  5. Prep salad. Toss cherry tomatoes and rocket in a bowl with balsamic vinegar just before serving.
  6. Finish chicken. Thinly slice chicken and reserve any resting juices.
