Cooking Steps

Bake the plant-based crumbed chicken
1

• In a large frying pan, heat enough olive oil to coat base over medium-high heat. • Cook plant-based crumbed chicken until golden and heated through, 2-3 minutes on each side. • Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate and cover to keep warm.

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 minutes.

Make the salad
3

• Meanwhile, grate carrot (see ingredients). • In a large bowl, combine the honey with a drizzle of vinegar and olive oil. • Add carrot and deluxe salad mix, tossing to combine. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

Finish & serve
4

• Divide plant-based crumbed chick'n, potato chunks and rainbow salad between plates. Sprinkle over Parmesan cheese. • Serve with creamy pesto dressing. Enjoy!
