Cooking Steps

1

Preheat the oven to 220°C/200°C fan-forced. Cut the sweet potato (unpeeled) into 1cm cubes. Cut the cauliflower into 1cm florets. Slice the red onion into 1cm wedges. Finely chop the garlic (or use a garlic press). Divide the veggies and 1/2 the garlic between two oven trays lined with baking paper. Drizzle with olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Toss to coat, spread out in a single layer and roast for 25-30 minutes or until golden and tender. TIP: Cut the veggies to the correct size so they cook in the allocated time.

2

While the veggies are roasting, heat the butter and a drizzle of olive oil in a medium saucepan over a medium-high heat. Add the remaining garlic and cook, stirring, for 1 minute or until fragrant. Add the water, couscous, currants and crumble in 1/2 a chicken stock cube. Bring to the boil. Once boiling, cover with a lid and remove from the heat. Set aside for 5 minutes, or until all the water is absorbed. Fluff up with a fork and set aside, uncovered.

3

Finely chop the parsley. Slice the lemon into wedges. Roughly chop the baby spinach leaves.

In a small bowl, combine the Greek yoghurt with a squeeze of lemon, some of the parsley (reserve some for lunch) and a pinch of salt and pepper. Reserve the remaining lemon for lunch.

4

Place your hand flat on top of the chicken breast and use a sharp knife to slice through horizontally to make two thin steaks. In a medium bowl, combine the salt, Souk Market spice blend and a drizzle of olive oil. Add the chicken steaks and toss to coat. In a large frying pan, heat a good drizzle of olive oil over a medium-high heat. Add 1/2 the chicken steaks and cook for 3-5 minutes on each side (depending on thickness), or until cooked through. Repeat with the remaining chicken.

5

In a large bowl, toss the roast veggies with the baby spinach leaves. Reserve 2 portions of the roast veggie medley and 2 portions (about 1 cup) of the chicken for lunch and set aside.

Divide the remaining roast veggies between plates and crumble over the fetta. Top with the remaining chicken and drizzle with the lemon parsley yoghurt.

6

When you're ready to pack lunch, stir the reserved roast veggie medley and parsley through the couscous. Divide between two microwave-safe containers. Slice the reserved chicken and add to the containers. Divide the roasted seed mix and lemon wedges between the containers. Refrigerate. At lunch time, remove the lemon and seeds and microwave the couscous and chicken for 2-3 minutes or until heated through. Season with lemon, salt and pepper and sprinkle with the roasted seeds.
