Cooking Steps
• Preheat oven to 220°C/200°C fan-forced. • Cut butternut pumpkin into thin wedges. Place pumpkin on a lined oven tray. Drizzle with olive oil, season with pepper and sprinkle with garlic & herb seasoning. Toss to coat. • Roast until tender, 25-30 minutes.
TIP: Peel the pumpkin if you prefer!
• Meanwhile, finely chop garlic. • Thinly slice apple into wedges. • Grate carrot.
• Place chicken breast between two sheets of baking paper. Pound with a meat mallet or rolling pin until an even thickness, about 1cm thick. • In a shallow bowl, combine garlic, the plain flour, the salt and a pinch of pepper. In a second shallow bowl, whisk the egg. In a third shallow bowl, place panko breadcrumbs. • Dip chicken into flour mixture to coat, then into the egg and finally into breadcrumbs. Transfer to a plate.
• In a large frying pan, add enough olive oil to cover the base and heat over a medium-high heat. • Cook crumbed chicken, in batches, until golden and cooked through, 2-4 minutes each side. • Transfer to a paper-towel lined plate.
TIP: Add extra oil if needed so the schnitzel doesn't stick to the pan!
TIP: Chicken is cooked through when it's no longer pink inside.
• While the chicken is cooking, combine a drizzle of white wine vinegar and olive oil in a large bowl. • Season, then add apple, carrot and mixed salad leaves. Toss to combine.
• Slice chicken schnitzel. • Divide schnitzel, garlicky roast pumpkin and apple-carrot salad between plates. • Serve with dill & parsley mayonnaise. Enjoy!

Review summary
Updated on July 2026- Flavour: The schnitzel and roast pumpkin were well received, though some found the chicken needed more seasoning for fuller flavour.
- Ease of prep: Most found the recipe straightforward, though a few noted the crumbing process can be a little time-consuming and messy.
- Suggestions: Some felt the salad did not complement the dish well, with steamed greens or extra spinach suggested as alternatives. If the pumpkin pieces are small, cutting larger wedges yourself can help them roast more evenly and develop a better texture.
- Portions: A couple of reviewers felt the dill and parsley mayonnaise was not quite enough for two people, so consider having a little extra on hand.
