Instructions
Preheat the oven to 240°C/220°C fan-forced. Cut the potato into wedges and place on a lined oven tray. Add the garlic & herb seasoning, a pinch of pepper and a drizzle with olive oil. Toss to coat and bake until tender, 20-25 minutes.
While the wedges are baking, thinly slice the red onion. Thinly slice the apple. Place your hand flat on top of each chicken breast and slice through horizontally to make two thin steaks. Season with salt and pepper.
Heat a large frying pan over a high heat with a drizzle of olive oil. When the pan is hot, cook the chicken until browned, 2 minutes each side (the chicken will continue cooking in step 4). Transfer to a second lined oven tray.
Return the frying pan to a medium-high heat with a drizzle of olive oil. Cook the onion, stirring, until softened, 4-5 minutes. Spread the basil pesto over the top of each chicken, then top with the onion and crumble over the fetta cubes. Bake until the chicken is cooked through, 4-5 minutes.
TIP: Chicken is cooked through when it's no longer pink inside.
While the chicken is baking, combine the white wine vinegar and a drizzle of olive oil in a large bowl. Season. Add the apple and deluxe salad mix. Toss to combine.
Divide the pesto and fetta chicken, wedges and apple salad between plates.
