Cooking Steps

1

• Preheat oven to 240°C/220°C fan-forced. Chop 1/2 the carrot into small chunks. • Place chopped carrot and peeled & chopped pumpkin on a lined oven tray. • Drizzle with olive oil, season with salt and pepper and toss to coat. • Roast until tender, 15-20 minutes. TIP: If your oven tray is crowded, divide the veggies between two trays.

2

• Meanwhile, finely chop garlic. • Grate remaining carrot. • Roughly chop baby spinach leaves. • Pick and finely slice mint leaves.

3

• Place your hand flat on top of chicken breast and slice through horizontally to make two thin steaks. • In a medium bowl, combine a generous pinch of salt and a drizzle of olive oil. • Add chicken thigh, tossing to coat.

4

• In a medium saucepan, heat a drizzle of olive oil over medium-high heat. • Cook chicken until cooked through, 3-6 minutes each side (cook in batches if your pan is getting crowded). Transfer to a plate.

5

• Return saucepan to medium-high heat with the butter. Cook grated carrot until softened, 2 minutes. Add garlic and cook until fragrant, 1 minute. • Add the water and chicken-style stock powder. Bring to the boil, then add couscous and a drizzle of olive oil. Stir to combine, cover with a lid and remove from heat. • Set aside until all water is absorbed, 5 minutes. • Fluff up with a fork, then stir through baby spinach, roasted veggies and mint.

6

• Slice North Indian-spiced chicken. • Divide carrot couscous between bowls. Top with chicken. • Dollop over Greek-style yoghurt. Sprinkle with slivered almonds to serve. Enjoy!
