Cooking Steps
Preheat the oven to 220°C/200°C fan-forced. Cut the butternut pumpkin into 1cm wedges. Place the pumpkin and garlic & herb seasoning on an oven tray lined with baking paper. Season with salt and pepper and drizzle with olive oil. Toss to coat and roast until tender, 25-30 minutes.
TIP: Peel the pumpkin if you prefer!
While the pumpkin is roasting, finely chop the garlic. Trim the green beans. Place your hand flat on top of each chicken breast and use a sharp knife to slice through horizontally to make two thin steaks. In a medium bowl, combine the Aussie spice blend and a drizzle of olive oil. Add the chicken and toss to coat.
In a large frying pan, heat a drizzle of olive oil over a medium-high heat. Cook the chicken until cooked through, 3-5 minutes each side (depending on thickness). Transfer to a bowl.
TIP: The chicken is cooked through when it's no longer pink inside.
Return the frying pan with a good drizzle of olive oil over a medium-high heat. Add the green beans and cook until tender, 5-6 minutes. Add the garlic and cook until fragrant, 1 minute. Set aside.
Slice the chicken, reserving the resting juices.
Divide the pumpkin wedges, chicken and green beans between plates. Top the chicken with the creamy pesto dressing and spoon over the chicken resting juices.

Updated on Feb 2026- Flavour: The Aussie spice blend on the chicken was lovely, creating a tasty dish that was a hit with families.
- Ease of prep: Some found trimming many green beans time-consuming after work, suggesting a quicker veg option might be preferred.
- Suggestions: Consider substituting frozen beans if fresh ones aren't available. Pumpkin was a welcome change from sweet potato for some.
