Cooking Steps
ā¢ Preheat oven to 240Ā°C/220Ā°C fan-forced. ā¢ Cut sweet potato into bite-sized chunks. ā¢ Thinly slice brown onion (see ingredients). ā¢ Finely chop garlic. ā¢ Using a vegetable peeler, peel carrot into ribbons. ā¢ In a small bowl, combine lemon pepper seasoning, a drizzle of olive oil and a pinch of salt.
ā¢ Place sweet potatoes on a lined oven tray. Drizzle with olive oil, season with salt and pepper and toss to coat. ā¢ Roast until tender, 20-25 minutes.
ā¢ Meanwhile, in a large frying pan, heat a drizzle of olive oil over medium-high heat. ā¢ Cook onion, stirring until tender, 4-5 minutes. Add baby spinach leaves and garlic and cook, until wilted and fragrant, 1 minute. ā¢ Transfer to a bowl. Crumble in fetta cubes and mix to combine. Season to taste.
ā¢ Place your hand flat on top of each chicken breast and slice horizontally, without cutting all the way through. Rub chicken with lemon pepper mixture. ā¢ Open up chicken breast and fill with spinach and fetta mixture. Close chicken and secure with toothpicks or cooking twine. Transfer to a second lined oven tray. ā¢ Bake chicken for 16-18 minutes, or until cooked through.
TIP: If you don't have toothpicks or twine, just be extra careful when you handle the chicken. TIP: The chicken is cooked when it is no longer pink inside.
ā¢ In a medium bowl, combine carrot ribbons, mixed salad leaves, a drizzle of olive oil and vinegar. Season to taste.
ā¢ Slice chicken. ā¢ Divide spinach and fetta stuffed chicken, roasted sweet potatoes and salad between plates. ā¢ Serve with tomato relish. Enjoy!
