Cooking Steps

Prep the Veggies
1

Preheat the oven to 220°C/200°C fan-forced. Chop the sweet potato (unpeeled) into 2 cm chunks. Chop the carrot (unpeeled) 0.5 cm batons. Slice the zucchini into 1 cm thick discs. TIP: Chopping the veggies to the correct size ensures they cook in the allocated time.

Cook the Veggies
2

Place the sweet potato, carrot and zucchini on the oven tray lined with baking paper. Sprinkle over the sweet mustard spice blend, half the salt (use suggested amount) and a good drizzle of olive oil. Toss to coat and roast for 20-25 minutes, or until tender.

Add Flavour to the Chicken
3

While the veggies are cooking, peel and crush the garlic. In a medium bowl, combine the garlic, honey, wholegrain mustard, half the balsamic vinegar, half the sesame seeds and the remaining salt. Add a good drizzle of olive oil and stir to combine. Add the chicken thigh and toss to coat in the marinade. Set aside.

Cook the Chicken
4

Heat a drizzle of olive oil in a large frying pan over a medium heat. Once hot, add the chicken thigh and honey-mustard marinade and cook, turning the chicken regularly, for 12-14 minutes, or until the marinade has reduced and the chicken is golden and cooked through. TIP: Turning regularly will prevent the honey from burning. TIP: The chicken is cooked when it is no longer pink inside. TIP: Chicken cook times will vary depending on the size of the thigh.

Toss the Veggies
5

While the chicken is cooking, pick and finely chop the parsley leaves. Slice the lemon into wedges. In a medium bowl, toss the roasted vegetables, baby spinach leaves and parsley with the remaining balsamic vinegar and 1 1/2 tbs of olive oil. Season with a pinch of salt and pepper. TIP: Dress the veggies just before serving to avoid soggy leaves.

Serve Up
6

Divide the honey-mustard chicken and roast veggie toss between plates. Sprinkle over the remaining sesame seeds and serve the lemon wedges on the side.
