Pistachio Crumbed Chicken

with Asparagus Salad

At first glance this dish might seem ordinary, but it’s anything but. The pistachio crumb is really something, and asparagus is one of our favourite veggies to feature this time of the year, both fresh and nutty in equal measure.

Cooking Steps

1

Preheat the oven to 200°C/180°C fan-forced. Bring a half filled kettle of water to the boil. To prepare the ingredients, pat the chicken breast dry. Trim the asparagus ends and slice on the diagonal. Peel the cucumber into ribbons, wash the baby spinach leaves, and finely slice the red onion.

Bash the mixture
2

Place the pistachio & peanut mix in a plastic bag (or wrap in the centre of a tea towel) and bash using a rolling pin until the nuts resemble fine breadcrumbs. Transfer the nuts and panko breadcrumbs to a large bowl. Season with salt and pepper and stir to combine. Tip: you can do this in a small food processor if you prefer.

Coat the chicken
3

Drizzle the chicken breast with a dash of olive oil. Coat the chicken in the nut mixture, pressing firmly so it sticks. Lay the crumbed chicken breast on a lined oven tray. Top each fillet with any remaining crumb. Drizzle or spray with olive oil (this will give it a nice golden crust). Cook in the oven for 15-20 minutes, turning halfway, or until cooked through and golden on top. Once cooked remove from the oven and slice the chicken into pieces.

Blanch the asparagus
4

Meanwhile, place the asparagus pieces in a small bowl. Pour over the boiling water. Set aside for 5 minutes to blanch and then drain.

Toss the salad
5

To make the salad, combine the cucumber ribbons, baby spinach leaves, red onion and asparagus in a second large bowl. In a small jug or bowl combine the remaining olive oil, the balsamic vinegar and a good seasoning of salt and pepper. Pour over the salad and toss to combine.

6

To serve, divide the dressed salad and pistachio chicken between plates. Enjoy!
