1 packet
basil pesto
1
carrot
1 packet
chicken breast
1 clove
garlic
½ packet
light thickened cream
2
potato
1
zucchini
1 packet
grated Parmesan cheese
1 sachet
Aussie spice blend
30 g
butter
2 tbs
milk
olive oil
¼ tsp
salt
Bring a medium saucepan of lightly salted water to the boil. Peel the potato and cut into large chunks. Cook in the boiling water until easily pierced with a knife, 10-15 minutes. Drain and return to the saucepan. Add the butter, milk, the salt and grated Parmesan cheese. Mash until smooth. Cover to keep warm.
While the potato is boiling, slice the carrot into thin sticks. Thinly slice the zucchini into halfmoons. Finely chop the garlic. Place your hand flat on top of each chicken breast and slice horizontally through to make two thin steaks. In a medium bowl, combine the Aussie spice blend and a drizzle of olive oil. Add the chicken and toss to coat.
Heat a drizzle of olive oil in a large frying pan over a medium-high heat. Cook the carrot and zucchini until tender, 5-6 minutes. Add the garlic and cook until fragrant, 1 minute. Season with salt and pepper and toss to combine. Transfer to a plate and cover to keep warm.
Return the frying pan to a medium-high heat with a drizzle of olive oil. Cook the chicken steaks, in batches, until cooked through, 3-5 minutes each side (depending on thickness). Transfer to a plate.
TIP: The chicken is cooked through when it's no longer pink inside.
Return the frying pan to a medium heat. Add the light thickened cream (see ingredients), basil pesto and any chicken resting juices. Stir to combine and simmer until slightly thickened, 1-2 minutes. Season to taste.
Divide the Parmesan mash, Aussie chicken and garlic veggies between plates. Spoon over the creamy pesto sauce to serve.
