ROOTING FOR YOU!
Place the beetroot pieces in a pot of salted water. Once boiling, cook for 15-20 minutes until soft. Drain and cover to keep warm.
YES PE-CAN!
Place the chopped pecans in a pan, with a lid, over medium heat. Toast for 3-5 minutes until golden brown, shifting occasionally. Remove from the pan and set aside.
FLY Chicken
Pat the Chicken breast dry with paper towel. Place on a chopping board. Use a knife to slice into one side of the breast, starting at the thicker end and ending at the thin point (be careful not to cut all the way through.) Open it out so that it resembles a butterfly.
GREEN MACHINE
Return the pan to a medium-high heat with a splash of water. When bubbling, add the halved green beans. Cover with the lid and simmer for 3-4 minutes until softened. In the final minute, add the Peas. Drain, place in a bowl, and add a squeeze of Lemon juice and seasoning. Just before serving, add the shredded green leaves and a drizzle of olive oil. Toss until combined.
TASTY CHICKY
Return the pan to a medium-high high heat with a drizzle of oil. When hot, add the butterflied Chicken and fry for 3-4 minutes per side. In the final minute, add 20g of butter, the dried sage leaves, and ½ the toasted pecan nuts.
TIME TO DINE
Plate up the boiled beetroot. Crumble over the drained feta and sprinkle over the lemon zest. Side with the green bean salad and the Chicken drizzled with the sage butter. Scatter over the remaining nuts. Serve with a lemon wedge. Yummy!
