Cooking Steps
Preheat the oven to 220Ā°C/200Ā°C fan forced. Cut the potato into bite-sized chunks. Slice the capsicum into thick strips. Place the potato and capsicum a lined oven tray. Top with a drizzle with olive oil and a sprinkle of salt and pepper. Toss to coat. Spread into an even layer and roast until tender, 20-25 minutes.
Place your hand flat on top of the chicken and slice through horizontally to make two thin steaks. In a large bowl, combine the garlic & herb seasoning, chicken breast and a drizzle of olive oil. Toss to coat.
Thinly slice the red onion. In a medium frying pan, heat a drizzle of olive oil over a medium heat. Add the onion and cook, stirring regularly until softened, 5-6 minutes. Add the balsamic vinegar (for the onion), water and brown sugar and mix well. Cook until dark and sticky, 3-5 minutes. Transfer to a small bowl.
Wash out the frying pan. Heat a drizzle of olive oil in the pan over a a medium-high heat. Add the chicken steaks and cook until cooked through, 3-5 minutes each side (cook in batches if your pan is getting crowded). Set aside on a plate and cover with foil to rest.
TIP: The chicken is cooked when it is no longer pink inside.
Transfer the roasted veggies to a large bowl. Combine with the basil pesto and baby spinach leaves. Season, then toss to combine.
Thinly slice the chicken. Divide the pesto spinach veggies between plates and top with the chicken. Spoon over any resting juices from the chicken. Serve topped with the caramelised onions.
