THE MARINATING STEP
Preheat the oven to 200°C. Place the cab sauv vinegar, Italian Rub, rinsed thyme leaves, and grated garlic in a bowl. Mix in 2 tbsp of oil and the juice of 1 lemon wedge. Pat the chicken dry with paper towel and place in the bowl of marinade. Toss until coated and set aside to marinate for at least 10-15 minutes.
WHEN THE CHICKEN HAS FINISHED MARINATING...
Place the carrot wedges on a roasting tray, coat in oil, and season. Nestle the chicken amongst them and pour over the remaining marinade. Roast in the hot oven for 35-40 minutes until cooked through and crisping up. Place the onion wedges and drained chickpeas in a bowl. Coat in oil, season, and set aside.
YOU'RE HALFWAY!
When the roast reaches the halfway mark, give the carrots a shift and add the chickpeas and onion to the tray. Return to the oven for the remaining roasting time until the chickpeas are crispy.
BLANCH THE BEANS
Boil the kettle. Rinse the green beans, trim, and slice into thirds. Place a pot over a high heat, fill with boiling water, and add a pinch of salt. Once boiling rapidly, blanch the green beans for 2-3 minutes until cooked but still crunchy. Drain on completion and run under cold water to stop the cooking process.
LOOKING GOOD!
Place the beans and rinsed green leaves in a bowl. Add a drizzle of olive oil, a squeeze of lemon juice, and a pinch of zest. Toss to combine and season to taste. When the roast is ready, remove from the oven and crumble over the drained feta.
RADIANT ROAST
Plate some herby roast veggies next to the crispy chicken pieces and serve the zesty green salad on the side. Garnish with the remaining lemon zest to taste. Simple and satisfying!
