Cooking Steps
• Preheat oven to 220°C/200°C fan-forced. • Cut potato into bite-sized chunks. • Place potato on a lined oven tray. Drizzle with olive oil, sprinkle with garlic & herb seasoning and season with pepper. Toss to coat. • Roast until tender, 25-30 minutes.
TIP: Add less seasoning if you're not a fan of garlic!
• Meanwhile, cut deep slices into each chicken breast at 1cm intervals, taking care not to slice all the way through. • Place chicken, cut-side up, on a second lined oven tray. Spoon basil pesto into the slices. Season with salt and pepper, then sprinkle with Cheddar cheese.
Little cooks: Help stuff the chicken with the pesto before sprinkling it with the cheese. Make sure to wash your hands well afterwards!
• Bake chicken until browned and cooked through, 12-16 minutes (depending on thickness).
TIP: Chicken is cooked through when it's no longer pink inside.
• Meanwhile, halve snacking tomatoes. • Grate carrot.
Little cooks: Older kids, help grate the carrot under adult supervison!
• In a large bowl, combine a drizzle of olive oil and balsamic vinegar. • Season, then add tomatoes, carrot and mixed salad leaves. Toss to combine.
Little cooks: Lend a hand by combining the dressing and tossing the salad!
• Divide pesto and Cheddar hasselback chicken, garlic-herb roast potatoes and salad between plates. • Sprinkle flaked almonds over salad. • Serve with garlic aioli. Enjoy!
