Cooking Steps

1
1

Bring a medium saucepan of lightly salted water to the boil. Peel sweet potato and cut into large chunks. Cook in the boiling water until easily pierced with a fork, 12-15 minutes. Drain, then return to pan. Add the butter, milk, the salt and grated Parmesan cheese. Mash until smooth. Cover to keep warm.

Little cooks: Get those muscles working and help mash the potatoes!

While sweet potato is cooking, slice carrot into thin sticks. Thinly slice zucchini into half-moons. Finely chop garlic. Place your hand flat on top of each chicken breast and slice through horizontally to make two thin steaks. In a medium bowl, combine Aussie spice blend and a drizzle of olive oil. Add chicken, turning to coat.

Little cooks: Kids can help wash the veggies!

In a large frying pan, heat a drizzle of olive oil over medium-high heat. Cook carrot and zucchini, tossing, until tender, 5-6 minutes. Add garlic and cook until fragrant, 1 minute. Season with salt and pepper. Transfer to a bowl. Cover to keep warm.

Return frying pan to medium-high heat with a drizzle of olive oil. Cook chicken, in batches, until cooked through, 3-5 minutes each side (depending on thickness). Transfer to a plate.

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