Pesto-Crusted Chicken & Apple Slaw

with Roast Potato Chunks

In this surprisingly simple recipe, creamy pesto adds a rich and herby flavour to the juicy chicken, while also helping the Parmesan crust to stick. Serve with a couple of colourful sides to balance out the richness.

Due to recent weather, you may see a few more potatoes in your meal kit this week! Sizes are a bit smaller right now, so our team picks enough to match your recipe. Big or small, you’ll always have the right amount for dinner.

Cooking Steps

Bake the chicken
1

• Preheat oven to 240°C/220°C fan-forced.
• In a medium bowl, combine Parmesan cheese, panko breadcrumbs (see ingredients) and a pinch of salt. Set aside.
• Place chicken breast on a lined oven tray. Drizzle with olive oil, then season generously with salt. Turn to coat. Squeeze half the creamy pesto dressing (see 
ingredients) onto the chicken and sprinkle over panko-Parmesan mixture, gently pressing so it sticks.
• Drizzle chicken with a little more olive oil. Bake until crumb is golden and chicken is cooked through (when no longer pink inside), 14-18 minutes. 

Roast the potato
2

• Meanwhile, cut potato into bite-sized chunks.
• Spread potato over a large microwave-safe plate. Cover with a damp paper towel. Microwave potatoes on high, 3 minutes.
• Drain any excess liquid, then place potatoes on a second lined oven tray. Drizzle with olive oil, season with salt and toss to coat.
• Spread out evenly, then roast until golden and tender, 10-15 minut

Make the slaw
3

• Meanwhile, thinly slice apple (see ingredients) into sticks.
• In a large bowl, combine the honey with a drizzle of vinegar and olive oil.
• Add apple and slaw mix, tossing to combine. Season to taste with saltand pepper. 

Finish & serve
