Cooking Steps

• Preheat oven to 240°C/220°C fan-forced. Cut beetroot and carrot into fries. • Place veggie fries on a lined tray. Sprinkle over 1/2 mild Caribbean jerk seasoning. Drizzle with olive oil and toss to coat. Spread out evenly, then bake until tender, 20-25 minutes.

• Place your hand flat on top of each chicken breast and slice through horizontally to make two thin steaks. • In a medium bowl, combine remaining mild Caribbean jerk seasoning and a drizzle of olive oil. Season with salt, then add chicken steaks and turn to coat. • In a large frying pan, heat a drizzle of olive oil over medium-high heat. When oil is hot, cook chicken steaks until cooked through, 3-6 minutes each side.

TIP: The spice blend will char slightly in the pan, this adds to the flavour!
