Cooking Steps

1

• Preheat oven to 240°C/220°C fan-forced. • Cut carrot and beetroot into fries. Place on a lined oven tray. Drizzle with olive oil, season with salt and pepper and toss to coat. • Bake until tender, 20-25 minutes.

TIP: If your oven tray is crowded, divide between the fries two trays.

• In a medium bowl, combine Nan's special seasoning and a drizzle of olive oil. Add chicken thigh and toss to coat. • In a large frying pan, heat a drizzle of olive oil over medium-high heat. Cook chicken, turning occasionally, until browned and cooked through, 10-14 minutes. Transfer to a plate to rest.

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

TIP: Chicken is cooked through when it's no longer pink inside.
