  1. LET’S ROAST

    Preheat the oven to 200°C. Pat dry the chicken with some paper towel. Place on a roasting tray with the onion wedges. Coat in oil, a squeeze of lemon juice, ½ the rub, and seasoning. Roast in the hot oven for 25-30 minutes until cooked through and becoming crispy, shifting halfway.

  2. LOOK AT THIS GEM

    Place the gem squash in a pot, fully submerge in water, and place over a high heat. Once boiling, cook for 20-25 minutes until easily pierced through with a knife. Remove from the pot on completion and cut in half – take care not to burn yourself! Scoop out the seeds and discard. Set the halves aside until serving.

  3. SALAD CITY

    In a salad bowl, combine the cucumber half-moons, the tomato wedges, a squeeze of lemon juice, ½ the chopped parsley, a drizzle of oil, and seasoning. When the chicken is done, taste to test and season again if necessary.

  4. DINNER IS SERVED

    Plate up the gem squash halves and top with a knob of butter or a drizzle of olive oil. Sprinkle over the remaining rub. Side with the roasted chicken, onion wedges, and the fresh salad. Crumble over the drained feta. Sprinkle over the sunflower seeds, the remaining parsley and garnish with a lemon wedge. Perfection, Chef!
