READY THE ROAST VEG
Coat the roast veg mix in oil, ½ the NOMU rub, and seasoning. Air fry at 200°C until crispy, 18-20 minutes (shifting halfway).
LEMONY CHICKEN
While the veg is cooking, place a pan (with a lid) over medium heat with a drizzle of oil. Pat the chicken dry with paper towel. When hot, fry the chicken on one side until golden, 4-5 minutes. Flip, cover with the lid, and fry until cooked through, 4-5 minutes. During the final 1-2 minutes, baste the chicken with a knob of butter, the remaining NOMU rub, and a squeeze of lemon juice. Remove from the pan and rest for 5 minutes before slicing and seasoning.
FETA & OLIVE SALAD
In a salad bowl, combine a sweetener (to taste) with a generous squeeze of lemon juice, a drizzle of olive oil, and seasoning. Toss through the shredded salad leaves, the cucumber half-moons, the drained olives, and the drained feta. Loosen the mustard mayo with water in 5ml increments until drizzling consistency. Set aside.
MMMOUTHWATERING MEAL!
Plate up the chicken and drizzle over the loosened mayo. Side with the roast veg and the salad. Serve any remaining lemon wedges on the side.
