Parmesan & Zucchini Crusted Chicken

with Parsley-Mash & Roasted Carrots

Who doesn’t love a crusted chicken? We love this trick of using zucchini to keep the chicken moist – just be sure to squeeze out the excess moisture so you still form a good crust.

Instructions

Get prepped
1

Preheat the oven to 200°C/180°C fan-forced. Bring a large saucepan of water to the boil. Slice the carrot (unpeeled) into 1 cm thick discs. Finely grate the Parmesan cheese. Pound the free-range chicken breast with a meat mallet or rolling pin until 1 cm thick. Peel and chop the potato into 2 cm chunks. Finely chop the parsley leaves. Slice the lemon into wedges.

Roast the carrot
2

Place the carrot on the first oven tray lined with baking paper. Drizzle with olive oil and season with a pinch of salt and pepper. Toss to coat and place in the oven to bake for 25 minutes, or until tender and golden.

Prepare the crust
3

Grate the zucchini and squeeze out the excess liquid with your hands or a clean towel. TIP: Squeezing out the excess moisture from the zucchini is important to ensure your crust doesn’t become soggy. In a medium bowl, combine the zucchini, the Parmesan cheese and the chilli flakes (use suggested amount). TIP: Some like it hot but if you don’t, just hold back on the chilli flakes. Season with a pinch of salt and pepper.

Cook the chicken
4

Place the chicken breast on the second oven tray lined with baking paper. Drizzle with olive oil and spoon over the parmesan-zucchini mixture. Place in the oven to bake for 15 minutes. Turn the oven grill to high. Place the tray with the chicken under the grill to cook for a further 5-10 minutes, or until the crust is crisp and the chicken is cooked through. TIP: The chicken is cooked when it is no longer pink inside.

Make the parsley-mash
5

While the chicken is cooking, place the potato in the large saucepan of boiling water. Cook for 10-15 minutes, or until easily pierced with a knife. Drain and return the potato to the saucepan. Add the milk and butter and mash with a potato masher or fork until smooth. Stir through the parsley and season to taste with a pinch of salt and pepper.

Serve up
6

Divide the parmesan-zucchini crusted chicken, the roasted carrots and the parsley-mash between plates. Serve with the lemon wedges on the side.
