Cooking Steps

Preheat oven to 240°C/220°C fan-forced. Cut onion (see ingredients) into thick wedges. Cut carrot into bite-sized chunks. Drain the sweetcorn. Roughly tear mixed leaves (see ingredients), then discard the stem. Set leaves aside. Place peeled & chopped pumpkin, onion, carrot and corn on a lined oven tray. Drizzle with olive oil, season with salt and pepper and toss to coat. Roast until almost tender, 15-20 minutes. Remove from oven, then add mixed leaves and a pinch of salt. Gently toss to combine. Return to oven to roast until tender and slightly charred, a further 5-8 minutes.

TIP: If your oven tray is crowded, divide the veggies between two trays!

In a large frying pan, heat a drizzle of olive oil over medium-high heat. Cook chicken, turning occasionally, until browned and cooked through (when no longer pink inside), 10-14 minutes. Remove pan from heat.

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