Cooking Steps

Add flavour to the chicken
1

Preheat the oven to 200°C/180°C fan-forced. In a large bowl, combine the chicken breast and red pesto. Season with salt and pepper and toss to coat. Set aside.

Cook the chicken
2

In a large frying pan, heat a small drizzle of olive oil over a medium-high heat. Cook the chicken until browned, 2 minutes each side. Transfer to an oven tray lined with baking paper and pour over any remaining pesto from the pan or the bowl. Bake until cooked through, 8-12 minutes. Set aside to rest.

TIP: Chicken is cooked through when it's no longer pink inside.

Make the croutons
3

While the chicken is baking, tear the bake-at-home ciabatta (see ingredients) into small chunks. Finely chop the garlic. In a medium bowl, combine the ciabatta, garlic, rustic herb spice blend (see ingredients) and a generous drizzle of olive oil. Season with salt and pepper and toss to coat. Spread out on a second oven tray lined with baking paper and bake until golden, 8-10 minutes.

Continue prepping
4

While the croutons are baking, roughly chop the tomato. Thinly slice the cucumber into half-moons.

Make the salad
5

In a large bowl, combine the vinegar, honey and a good drizzle of olive oil. Season with salt and pepper. Add the tomato, cucumber, mixed salad leaves, shaved Parmesan cheese (see ingredients) and croutons to the dressing and toss to coat.

Serve up
6

Slice the red pesto chicken. Divide the panzanella salad between plates and top with the chicken. Spoon over any juices from the oven tray. Serve with the garlic aioli.
