Cooking Steps

Roast the veggies
1
  • Preheat oven to 240°C/220°C fan-forced.
  • Cut potato, zucchini and capsicum into bite-sized chunks. 
  • Place veggies on a lined oven tray. Drizzle with olive oil, season with salt and toss to coat. 
  • Roast until tender, 20-25 minutes.

TIP: If your oven tray is crowded, divide between two trays.

Cook the rice
2
  • Meanwhile, to a medium saucepan, add the water and bring to the boil.
  • Add basmati rice, stir, cover with a lid and reduce heat to low.
  • Cook for 10 minutes, then remove pan from heat and keep covered until rice is tender and water is absorbed, 10 minutes.

TIP: The rice will finish cooking in its own steam so don't peek!

Bake the chicken
3

• While rice is cooking, place your hand flat on top of chicken breast and slice through horizontally to make two thin steaks. In a large bowl, combine tandoori paste, half the Greek-style yoghurt, a good pinch of salt and a drizzle of olive oil. Add chicken breast and toss to coat. 
• Transfer chicken to a second lined oven tray and bake until cooked through, 14-16 minutes.

TIP: Chicken is cooked through when its no longer pink inside.

TIP: Use two oven trays if necessary.

Make the salsa
4
  • While chicken is baking, roughly chop cucumber and tomato.
  • In a second medium bowl, combine cucumber, tomato, a drizzle of olive oil and white wine vinegar. Season.
Serve up dinner
5
  • Slice chicken and reserve a portion for lunch.
  • Place basmati rice, tandoori chicken and cucumber salsa in a bowl. Dollop with remaining yoghurt and half the tamarind chutney to serve. Enjoy!
Prepare your lunch
6
  • When you're ready to pack your lunch, place baby spinach leaves, roast veggie toss and reserved chicken in a container. Top with remaining tamarind chutney. Refrigerate.
  • At lunch, toss the salad with a drizzle of white wine vinegar and season to taste. Enjoy!
