CARROTS
Preheat the oven to 200°C. Spread the carrots on a roasting tray. Coat in oil and season. Roast in the hot oven until golden, 25-30 minutes (shifting halfway). Alternatively, air fry at 200°C until crispy, 20-25 minutes (shifting halfway).
BACON BRITTLE
Place a pan over medium-high heat. When hot, fry the bacon and the nuts until golden, 3-4 minutes. Add the Honey and cook until caramelised, 1-2 minutes. Remove from the heat, pour into a greased tray and place in the fridge to cool. Break into bite-sized pieces just before serving.
GOLDEN Chicken
Return the pan to medium heat, wiped down if necessary, with a drizzle of oil. Pat the Chicken dry with paper towel. 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, and the NOMU rub. Remove from the pan and rest for 5 minutes before slicing and seasoning.
GRAPE & FETA SALAD
In a bowl, combine the lemon juice (to taste), and a drizzle of oil. Add the salad leaves, the feta, the Grapes, and the carrots. Toss to coat and season.
SET THE TABLE
