Cooking Steps

1

• Preheat oven to 240°C/220°C fan-forced. • Cut beetroot into 1cm chunks. Cut carrot and zucchini into bite-sized chunks. Place prepped veggies on a lined oven tray (if your oven tray is crowded, divide veggies between two trays). • Drizzle with olive oil, season with salt and pepper and toss to coat. Roast until tender, 20-25 minutes.

TIP: Beetroot stays firm when cooked. It's done when you can pierce it with a fork.

2

• Meanwhile, tear kale leaves from the stem, then roughly chop the leaves. Finely chop garlic. Set aside. • In a medium bowl, combine garlic & herb seasoning and a drizzle of olive oil. Add chicken thigh, turning to coat.

3

• When the roast veggies have 15 minutes remaining, heat a large frying pan over medium-high heat with a drizzle of olive oil. • Cook chicken, turning occasionally, until browned and cooked through (when no longer pink inside), 10-14 minutes. • Transfer to a plate. Cover to keep warm.

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

4

• Wipe out frying pan, then return to medium-high heat with a drizzle of olive oil. • Cook kale and garlic until wilted and fragrant, 2-3 minutes.

5

• To the roast veggie tray, add kale, semi-dried tomatoes (see ingredients), a drizzle of vinegar and 1/2 the creamy pesto dressing. • Toss to combine. Season to taste.

6

• Slice herby chicken. • Divide roast veggie salad between plates. Top with chicken. • Drizzle with remaining creamy pesto to serve. Enjoy!
